[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Probably he same as a typical day at most schools in the city. Do you really think JKLM do pk4 that differently than any other school or are you intentionally trying to show posters that you’re IB for a JKLM? Why not mention the actual school if you want real feedback? [/quote]

NP. We are IB for a JKLM but did PK at a Title 1 school. They had the Tools of the Mind curriculum and focused a lot on academics (although ToM is ostensibly play based). I don't know this for sure, but from what I've heard WOTP schools do less academics in PK, as they serve such different demographics. So it seems legitimate to ask with reference to that group of schools.[/quote]

Also, as mentioned above, at least two of the schools have the reggio emilia program which is a different way of doing preK than some others. Seems if you are on Capitol Hill, you would ask about preK there. Why so sensitive?[/quote]

PP wasn't sensitive.  Make a valid point.[/quote]

A valid point has been made. Not every DCPS ECE is the same, and the WOTP schools are special group because they are serving primarily privileged demographics who don't need the early push of academics.[/quote]

Utterly ridiculous. First, just because JKLM are white a non poor does NOT mean all EOTP schools are title 1 and a stark different demographics. You can’t tell me that Janney does ECE any different than Shepherd or Ross. OP didn’t ask about circulum, she asked about a typical day. She was blowing her dog whistle by saying “brown people need not respond”. The JKLM schools aren’t the same so there is no other purpose for phrasing the question that way.[/quote]
