[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I'd only do it if you're not picky about which school your kid ends up in. There are very few schools where PK3 is guaranteed at your in-bounds school, and those are usually not the best schools. As you know, it's a lottery system. [/quote] There are enough citywide PK3 spots to go around, but like others have said, the demand varies by school. DC does early childhood education very, very well. The PK3 and PK4 programs have been around long enough that even the schools deemed "not the best" have likely had quality professional development and maybe learned from other schools. There might be some non-monetary value to consider if you compare PK3 "real school" to your current childcare situation. OP, do the math as thoroughly as you can. Everything equal to what you have in NoVA is probably going to be more expensive in DC. [/quote]
