[quote=Anonymous]You'll be glad you switched by day 1 of first grade at Watkins. Privately, look at the stunning difference in the FARMs rates for both schools. Most PreS3 kids can adapt to this type of change surprisingly quickly and with little pain. You'll probably have around 2 weeks of ups and downs at the new school, then it's all a closed chapter for years to come. We switched from one DCPS to another in the fall of preschool, no big deal. We worried far too much about emotional and social fallout beforehand. Take the kid to SWS a couple times before the switch, walk around, say hi to teachers and staff, talk about how excited you are about the new school, hang out on the playground with SWS families etc., arrange a play date with an SWS PreS3 family. She'll get there. [/quote]
