[quote=Anonymous]My DS went to a half-day PreK in public school and then public school for K-4 and is now in private. I don't feel like he was pushed too much at the expense of creativity and play, if anything, he complained that the work was too easy, and was bored (starting in 2nd grade, he would get a 3 page packet for homework for the week). He had lots of time to play, made lots of friends, had time for extracurricular activities, and was not stressed about workload or difficulty. (And he is not an overachiever.) He's in private now because we moved. From what I remember, in K, there was a mix of backgrounds and abilities, some kids could read and others couldn't. By the end of the year they were all pretty much in the same place academically. It was fine. [/quote]
