Before anyone jumps on me for just trying to deflect from Tuckahoe, let me say that up to now I've been pretty vocal in this discussion and others about Tuckahoe being a viable option school. The preschool thing literally just occurred to me, but I think it's an important consideration if we're sincere about wanting to create/maintain opportunities for lower-income students in Arlington.[/quote]

The county doesn't seem to have an issue with having preschools without bathrooms in the classroom. I don't think Madison has them...do the other preschool locations?[/quote]

The standards are different for public and private preschool programs.[/quote]

The preschools at community centers are public.  Maybe APS has different standards...or maybe a classroom or two of first graders could sacrifice. [/quote]

Madison isn't a preschool, it's a co-operative playgroup. Same with Lee and Fairlington.[/quote]

Kind of a moot point since Tuckahoe has a preschool

Those are co-op recreational programs run through the Department of Parks & Recreation. They are not actually schools and are not run by APS. The public pre-K programs run by APS are subject to different regulations and guidelines.[/quote]
