[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is absurd to compare Little Folks to St. Patrick's or Aidan.  The AD of Little Folks stated without hesitation in the open house that parents should not expect their children to learn to read at the preschool.  The place is essentially a glorified playgroup, and should be mentioned in the same breath as Intown or Blue Igloo or Little Graces.  To compare it to schools with academic programs simply reflects the poster's deep ignorance about any of these schools.  Most likely, the poster is just passing on rumors....[/quote]

Anyone who actually WANTS their kid to learn to read in preschool is the insane one (sorry, let me use your own word: absurd).

Little Folks does just what a preschool should do.  It lets 2, 3, and 4 year olds explore learning through experience.  Most of that is through play.

I knew how to read before I went to K -- is that uncommon?  I assumed all children would have this skill by then, and that preschools would include it in their curriculum? (And PS, I spent 1 year at a unprestigious preschool only so my mom could go back to work, and started K in public school).[/quote]
