[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is JOW, LT, Maury and others not play based?[/quote]

They are very play based, especially in PK3.[/quote]

The title 1 schools tend but to be and what PP was alluding to with JOW[/quote]

PP is wrong, all DCPS PKs are play based, including JOW. DCPS is pretty amazing across the board for PK because they have very high standards for the teachers -- the vast majority have a masters in early childhood education.

I do think DCPS is more academic in K than some charters (depends on the charter).[/quote]

Nope, worksheets, homework, math, screens, testing.

It’s pretty ridiculous in ECE what is coming down from central

My kids experienced none of this and their Title 1 DCPS PK experience was a magical wonderland. That changes later, but I would recommend the PK wholeheartedly.

Also agree that there is one poster declaring this repeatedly.[/quote]

I am not a poster that has declared this repeatedly (first time posting on this subject) but we experienced two different DCPS PK programs, both of them pretty highly regarded, and they were night and day in terms of incorporating play-based learning. I wouldn't have understood this if we hadn't had the comparison point of the other program. Sometimes you don't know what you don't know!
