[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can’t help but feel that the people who claim to love Stevens probably work there. It’s hard to genuinely love a public school—especially if your child is in the afterschool program. Stevens is deeply flawed for one main reason: the teachers don’t seem to care about students’ academic success, classroom performance, or even basic parent and child satisfaction. Since the school isn't ranked and around 55% of students only stay for a year, there seems to be little incentive for improvement. Plus, there are always families desperate for free childcare, so no matter how bad Stevens gets, there will always be children enrolled.[/quote] What academic success do you expect in pre-k? You should probably do the research, the more academics in early years (birth-5) the worse the results later. Play based learning is the best, your child's ‘academic performance’ should be prioritized in older grades. It’s weird you have such a disdain for public schooling. Private and homeschooling is available.[/quote]
