[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Half the kids in our school are not even from this country let alone have preschool experience. They can't even speak English. Be prepared to basically homeschool as your kid in the middle and top will be ignored. Barely meet for reading groups, boring busy work. My child went to a play-based preschool and was bored as the teacher's focus was on non-English kids.  [/quote]

I agree.  A korean kid in my child class came in not knowing a lick of English and the 3rd day, punched my DD's pregnant K teacher in the stomach and took off down the hall screaming and running.  I was volunteering and had to run down the hall looking for help because I was not allowed to touch him.  What a great experience for that class.  Watching a kid punch a pregnant women.  But there he was back in the class the next day screaming and crying away for 2 weeks.  Two kids moved to other classes (probably after massive complaints due to anxiety.)  It is just awful the parents that send kids into a school with no English.  It should be mandatory to know some or pay to have a one on one aide.  Classes of 24 kids don't have time for that crap.
