[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the OP. Thanks everyone for your input, I really appreciate it. So is Shining Stars going to be closed? Because I would put it on my list as a better-than-daycare option, but if it closes and then we can't get our daycare spot back that would be a major problem.[/quote] Why would it close? Enrollment went down in a lot of schools around the city, including the “popular” ones. Two kids at SSMA and they are doing wonderful. I wouldn’t change to any of the other schools in the neighborhood unless I was going to Friendship. [/quote] NP here-- curious about the Friendship comment. Isn't the Friendship approach the opposite of Montessori? Would love to hear more about your thinking. And concur. SSMA may not have the best admin communication, but how did you get the vibe that they were going to close?[/quote] OP here, someone told me SSMA might close because the enrollment has gone down a lot and that means they don't have as big a budget. Apparently there used to be more kids before the pandemic. People on this thread say it's on a "downward spiral". I have not had anyone suggest Friendship, but I might have room for one more school.[/quote]
