[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Expansion of PK3 in DC had two goals. 1) Help close the gap between poor kids and well-prepared kids. Research from Pew and others consistently shows that a dollar invested in high-quality preschool has a greater educational benefit ROI than a dollar invested at any other point in the education system. 2) Get parents of all income levels to enroll in under-enrolled DCPS schools so DCPS would stop losing so much 'market share' to charters and private schools. That's it. The schools without Pk3 were not, and are NOT under-enrolled. They truly do NOT have space for PK3. [/quote] That's all and good but when 104 of the 111 schools have it and only 7 don't it becomes problematic, especially when it's paid for out of tax dollars[/quote] Oh cry me a river. It is not happening because parents at those schools were against it. There is no right to free preschool even if most other people have it. [/quote]
