[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can a current parent remark more on the aftercare program? We heard it was great too. What disruptive behavior are we talking about?[/quote]

There is no abnormally disruptive behavior that I know about in the k and under crowd.  I am not sure how the issues discussed above play out in aftercare.  I would assume that if the same kids were in aftercare, the issues would be similar in both regular school and aftercare, but I don't actually know who any of the kids at issue are, if they are in aftercare, or how that works.  Aftercare is generally mostly in Spanish though and a little more free wheeling than a typical school day, so maybe the issues are heightened.  I really don't know.[/quote]

This is not an issue for my child's aftercare experience (1st grade) but I suspect as a PP stated that the same problem kids in the 2 classrooms are also in aftercare. I also believe that some teachers are naturally better at managing kids and others need more support. It doesn't come natural for people (consider many parenting experiences) and if you don't have kids yourself and have 18-20 at the same time and 3-4 are constant problems it has to be overwhelming. Baptism by fire.[/quote]

then they should have more support for those teachers - I am not a natural disciplinarian and sometimes my kids try to get away with murder because of it. I don't know what I'd do if I didn't have somewhere to turn and lean on.  Structure is good for kids and they KNOW when they can get away with things, they're smart.[/quote]
