[quote=Anonymous]We did not qualify for PreK, but there are PEP PILOT programs where your child can attend a public elementary school as a community peer student.  I believe it was $150 per semester for two days a week 2.5 hrs.  Only select schools offer Pep Pilot.  Some in my area are Thurgood Marshall, Lake Seneca, Brown Station, and there's one in Potomac and Bethesda I don't recall the names of.  There is a high demand for it with few spots, so I would advise filling out the application in advance and bringing it in first thing the morning the registration opens.  
The class was about 1/2 kids with IEP's and 1/2 kids without.  I couldn't ever tell them apart, it just seemed like a regular preschool class. Kids with more things to work on in their IEP were in other PEP classes.   It was nice to have the occupational therapist, speech, physical therapist, etc. at disposal. I appreciated having a high quality mcps teacher rather than a private preschool teacher who may not have had as much training.  Even though my child did not have an IEP and was in classes with those that did, the kindergarten readiness was wonderful and attention was given to all students.  Transportation not provided for community peer students. [/quote]
