[quote=Anonymous]My recollection is that eliminating PK3 was considered back in October 2013 in the wake of more than two dozen IB families being shut out of the lottery earlier that year. Subsequent to a LSAT-community meeting in late October, Principal Young decided to implement the mixed age model in four classrooms, principally at the urging of the ECE teachers. This current formulation, which includes a Reggio-inspired curriculum, replaced two PS3 classes, two PK4 classes and one mixed age classroom, a formulation which had existed for three or four years prior. The Strategic Planning Working Groups may have also looked at the pros and cons of dropping PS3, but appears to be advocating the addition another mixed-age classroom -- which would accommodate another 10 four-year olds and 7 three-year olds in the short-term -- for the purpose of finding a way to boost overall enrollment from 370 to 400.[/quote]
