[quote=Anonymous]My daughter's Montessori preschool does something like this. First two days are one-on-one orientations for the new kids by the lead instructor, with the parents shadow/following behind. Wednesday is the first day with both new and returning kids and it's a half day. Thursday & Friday I think are half days with everyone. I can see how it helps the kids who've never been away from their moms ever, which is like 2 kids out of the whole class, but for the rest of the families, it's really challenging logistically - you've gotta find childcare for siblings while attending these half hour orientations, childcare or early pick up for the half days if your kid is otherwise a full day kid. There is no aftercare that week, and there are no camps to sign your kid up for. So you basically just need to take the week off, or have a nanny who can shuttle your kid back and forth while caring for any other kids you might have. [/quote]
