[quote=Anonymous]Our oldest DC is in K at Potomac and I will echo PP's comments.  We've had a fantastic experience.   In terms of curriculum, I've been highly impressed with the approach in the classroom and with the specialists.   Learning is fun for the kids, yet I see steady improvement and development in DC's "academic" abilities, as well as in computers, art, music, etc.

I'll add that we've been very pleased by the warmth, efficiency, friendliness, and appropriateness of classroom life, student activities, parent involvement, community building, etc.  The new LS head is just wonderful. School is engaging and DC looks forward to going every day. DC is happy socially and is very confident all-around.  I really can't ask for a better fit.

The Friday and special assembly performances are pretty darn amazing.  The Tuesday before Thanksgiving, for example, the K class performed the Turkey Tango in front of the whole school (and parents/other relatives) and then "taught" the dance to the senior class.  I was struck that I did not notice a single child who appeared to have fear/stage fright.  I think the fact that they perform so regularly in front of others, it's not a big deal.  I think that's going to be a tremendous gift throughout the kids' lives.
