[quote=Anonymous]We were accepted at DC Bilingual and just got off the waitlist at Bethune. We are choosing Bethune, even though CAS scores are higher at DC Bilingual. CAS testing does not begin until later grades, so they are not a reflection on the PS3 program, which has *tremendously* improved in the last 2-3 years. Second, I believe that the incoming PS3 students at Bethune this year will be coming from families that take great interst/put a lot of effort into their children's education. What happens at home is complimentary to and as important as what happens in the classroom...I think with the incoming classes we will see much, much higher scores in the next few years. Third, the outdoor play space at Bethune is amazing. It's important for 3 year olds to PLAY!!! Fourth, while we LOVED everything about DC Bilingual inside the building, I did not always feel safe in the neighborhood during our trial drop off/pick ups. [/quote]
