[quote=Anonymous]Do you think the curriculum works well for PK students?

YES.

Can you give an example of an expedition? 
-Ask the school.  They will tell you what the expeditions are for each grade.  My kid is PK4 and it was nutrition.  They learned food groups, what foods provide are good for different parts of your body, they went to a farm, grocery store, cooked, drew, sang, interviewed a nutritionist  etc.  My child loved it.

Now they are learning about building.  They interviewed an architect, visited a construction site, drew thier own blueprints, visited the Building Museum.  They built a birdhouse- without a blueprint which so they could experience chaos and the need for plans while building. The

next day they built with blueprints.

What do you like most about the community? 
-They seem to do a good job with hiring good people.

Did you feel the assessment given at the parent orientation actually helped the teacher better educate your child? 
-Don't know what you are talking about.

What areas do you think could use some improvement?
-Not in love with aftercare but it seems to be getting better.  It is alright.

P.S. The views of the river, the golf course, the metro train,  and the Arboretum are beautiful.  Have spotted the bald eagles - the ones nesting at the Arboretum- more than once.

I was matched to Young and would love to hear more. Thanks![/quote]
