[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From reading this thread it appears that SWS is the only Capitol Hill ES that chose not to bring back any students in Pk3 or Pk4.  [/quote]

Not at SWS, but think elementary schools should be prioritizing K-5 over Pk3 and Pk4.  Not only are Pk3 and Pk4 classes optional/not mandatory, but they are the hardest to follow the safety guidelines (masks/physical distancing/etc).  I'm totally pro-reopening fwiw.[/quote]

I think the opposite. PK3 and PK4 are much more difficult to teach virtually, so they make the most sense to be in-person.[/quote]

I think DCPS shouldn’t have virtual or in person for PK 3 and PK 4 . They should be using the staff in these classrooms to support K-5.[/quote]

I think this is a choice that DCPS could have made at the beginning, but given that they offered in person, they now have an obligation to follow through. Also, there are plenty of teachers who aren’t certified for or would refuse to teach other grades, so it wouldn’t get you as much as you’d think. I say this all as the parent of a Ker.[/quote]

Also, schools get more funding per pk student than they do for any other student. It makes financial sense for them to try and do something to make sure pk students stay enrolled[/quote]
