[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, for Pre-K, you probably can't go wrong with the school. [b]In fact, if nothing else, it would be equivalent to good free daycare[/b]. If you were talking about a higher grade or even K, I would be a bit more reserved in my viewpoint. If you don't like it after Pre-K, your child should not have a hard time at the next school you go to as most children entering K do not know each other and it is quite normal to have everyone "starting" at that point.
Apply, see where they end up, and make a decision. It would be useful if you could get someone in the administration to  let you know where they plan on spending the money they are currently raising and what their goals are for the school. Then, you can see if that is in alignment with what you want. [/quote]

What an insulting, and erroneous view! Anyone who believes that the hardworking and highly qualified PS and PreK teachers at this school are just providing "good daycare," should take a moment to step into their classrooms, and actually see the high level of learning that goes on each and every day. I highly doubt that these teachers would have spent the time and effort to earn masters degrees (from very reputable universities,) to just then provide 'good free daycare,' to students.

PP, why don't you educated yourself on the importance of PreK by reading the following:

OP, I would agree with other posters in that your best bet would be to attend an Open House. Our DC has loved going to school, and has learned a ton thus far! Even though there have been a few hiccups along the way, we've just put that down to 'first year blues.' Good luck![/quote]
