[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PK3 isn’t even important to attendance numbers... everyone knows three years olds can sit like that[/quote]
Pk3 teacher here. The schedule I was given was 8-3:30, non stop except for breaks for lunch & nap. Attendance had to be taken at each session. Y’all got what you asked for. Now get that kid logged in [/quote]

Totally don’t get the “y’all got what you asked for” comment. Do most parents of rising PK3 kids want DL? Probably not.

+1 No one asked for this situation.[/quote]

Agreed, DCPS went from no DL for PK, and then a few parents asked if there could be something, and then turned it into full DL for PK3. People weren't asking for that, and certainly not for it to be mandatory. [/quote]

It’s not mandatory. Ask your school. Ours said if your child is not wanting to participate in some things, they understand and just let them know so they know your child is accounted for. They aren’t going to force pre k kids into anything. The option is there if you want it.  The attendance is to catch kids who may otherwise fall through the cracks. If a kid is not showing up for weeks, they can reach out and see if they need assistance.

The schedule isn’t all day. It has interactive options “offered” at different intervals. There is a full sample schedule for parents or kids who need more structure. If you don’t need that, don’t do it.

I’m pretty down on DCPS for a lot, but I think they have navigated pre-K as well as possible with distance learning. Here’s the same schedule:
