[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Imagine what it must be like to have preK for your 3-year-old.

Still, we can't complain. We're better off than the MoCo schools across Western Avenue who pack 28 kids into a classroom and don't have preK, period. [/quote]

You still have preK for your kid, just not at Janney.  You choose to not use it.[/quote]

Is it true that MoCo schools across western put 28 kids in a classroom? I'm not sure that is true, but just a DCUM rumor.[/quote]

Some years yes. The threshold for a new class is 28, but if there are late enrollments the classes can bulge to 29 or 30.[/quote]

And yet their (MoCo's) scores are still better than DC's.

(Oops, less to gloat about now...)[/quote]

Actually not really. Test scores for MoCo schools across western are about the same, or a little worse, than Ward 3 DCPS. [/quote]

Only for elementary.  It's not like Wilson is competitive.  And the class sizes in DC will follow MoCo upwards.  Also, the demographics will follow downwards in terms of "exclusivity."

If you want exclusive, you're supposed to pay for private don't you know?

In DC, your child exists as a resource for underserved children and the sooner you learn it the better off you will be.[/quote]

Wilson is excellent. Don't believe the MoCo hype.[/quote]
