[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.

His daycare director told us she believes he would thrive in a more challenging environment with older kids, and that their curriculum is not meant for kids to essentially repeat.  He has been in this same pre-K class since before he was 4, so he would end up spending 2+ years in the same classroom with the same curriculum (and yes, with naps, which he won't need) and with much younger kids.  If the person with a master's in early childhood education wants to turn away our money because she believes our kid will be under-stimulated at her school, I am inclined to take her word for it.

This is why academic based preschools are frustrating. Again, contact Takoma Children's School. Several children join the classroom every year from outside, all make friends,and their plsy based, Reggio philosophy means it will not be a repeat of last year. But... It won't be with all older  kids, because he'll always be the oldest in his class going from kindergarten forward.. But still, there will be plenty of kids born in the fall. [/quote]
