[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure what your financial situation is but in PG you only qualify for public Pre-K if you make under a certain amount of money. Or if your child qualifies because of developmental issues through the Infants and Toddler's program. [/quote] Thanks! I just looked into it and I don't qualify, so he'll be entering at Kindergarten. Mt. Rainier Elementary doesn't have very good scores. Is there anyone who can give me their impressions of this school? I've looked into private schools in the area, but all of them are basically "church schools", which I would rather avoid. [/quote] My son went here when Jan Reed was principal. His experience was very good for the most part. Test scores do not a whole story tell, as you know. The school has wonderful dedicated teachers and staff, a very involved PTO that does real things, and at the time, the TAG pull-out teacher was wonderful. The school atmosphere was one of respect and encouragement. The school celebrates consecutive "peace days" and paces a great emphasis on conflict resolution. [/quote]
