[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FCPS Kindergarten. I give the school and education a 9. We are actually zoned for a supposedly mediocre school based on greatschools. I was concerned solely based on this number. Because our school is not deemed prestigious, class sizes are small. My son's kindergarten class has 22 students and the teacher is truly marvelous. We are not a title 1 school. We have a fairly large Hispanic population but the families seem warm and friendly. My son LOVES going to school daily. Very satisfied with the curriculum, pace and specials. For some reason, I thought there would not be any play because I kept hearing about teaching to the test but my 5yo has 2-3 recesses per day, plenty of time to eat lunch and snack, has centers (DS considers this play), PE 4 times per week, Music and Art (not sure how often the special is but they seem to do art daily in the actual classroom). I am thrilled that DH did not cave to me buying a home in the Haycock or similar boundary.[/quote] [b]Which school offers 2 to 3 recesses a day[[/b]/quote] Our children are in a DC charter that has two recesses daily. Small classes too! We'd rate it a 2 on the OP's scale.[/quote] PP here who rated education a 9. I thought 10 was the highest score but realized 10 was unhappy. I also rate our school a 2.[/quote]
