[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is anyone with their kids after DCPS school? I am wondering if there's a huge change between spending mornings with my 3 yr old and being with him after his PK3 day ends. I might be able to swing the latter with my employer. [/quote] I always hung out with my kids after DCPS ended! I will say your thoughts about naptime were totally true for us -- for a 3/4year old kid who didn't need to nap, our DCPS got him napping for 90 minutes (that is the schedule!!) and he then stayed up until 9ish. it was hard! On the other hand, I LOVED our pk3 teachers who are insanely qualified (very experienced masters degree holders), and my kids actually learned a lot that year. My oldest was reading well by the end of the year (his teacher identified his ability and worked with him). And the socializing is adorable and delightful. And they feel proud of themselves. And because of the very long nap, it doesn't feel like that long of a day for them. [/quote]
