[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know an IB family who was offered a spot one week in. They took it. I live in the neighborhood but would not send my preschooler there (we are at a charter). I was not happy with what I was hearing about the preschool. However, many neighbors send their kids there and are very happy.[/quote] What did you hear about the preschool?[/quote] For one, I didn't like that PS kids were given homework/summer assignments in which they had to practice writing their names/practice writing letters for a certain amount of time every day. They were also given early math/numbers assignments. I know for some of the kids, these assignments turned into a chore. In my view, it's a very old-fashioned way of teaching, and just not a good fit for my family. But a lot of parents love the school, and maybe this method works for them.[/quote]
