[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would prioritize ensuring your DC is not one of the last ones for pick up. That is sadder than being there early I think. That was at least how I felt when My kids were in preschool. [/quote] Only sad if your kid is sad about it. If your kid is happy, why would it matter?[/quote] Not that PP, but I would much rather my kid be the first one in than the last one out. I like to pick up before his teachers start to leave, so I prioritize picking up before 4. I believe the quality of care and interactions drops between 4-6 almost anywhere because of this. It’s an 11-hour school day with staggered shifts and you pick the time that works best for you. In the morning, fresh teachers are coming in every 15-30 minutes. In the afternoon, it’s the opposite. Tired teachers are eager to leave every 15-30 minutes. Teachers are out, classes get combined, ratios grow, parents are in & out talking with teachers, etc. If you don’t have a choice, it is what it is, but if you do have a choice, that’s my $.03. —former director[/quote]
