[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]WTF free private PK3 in Ward 3. That is so messed up. Sickening.[/quote]

Oh please!

This is an awesome opportunity. I am a ward 4 parent already at a charter but I think it's great this is being offered. Ward 3 parents should have access (and I say access very lightly as the demand would far outweigh the supply) to free pk. Their tax dollars go into the system just like my family's. I have access to many charters from where I live. Many of my neighbors in ward 4,5 and 1 also make about the same to those in ward 3. There are many PK4 families that continue to be shut out of their neighborhood school. Why should our ward 3 neighbors have to pay two more years of private preschool (and let's admit it preschool and daycare on that side of town is also higher) when they are paying the same taxes as everyone else (often more). Stop being selfish. Either you want PK to he needs based or not. You can't say oh it's ok for my Petworth family that makes $200k a year (and has more equity) but not ok for a ward 3 family with higher mortgage, higher property taxes making same income to have access to pk.[/quote]

+1.  Good for them--seems only a few spots will be offered here, but maybe others will eventually open.
