[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]We also wanted more recess, more PE, art, music and smaller class sizes that the public schools can't offer us. The overcrowding is WAY out of control. [/quote] I've been actually surprised by how much PE, art and extra curricular opportunities there are at Williamsburg(we aren't at Yorktown yet)--as in a lot. Overcrowding is an issue, however. APS is a victim of its own success on that front. [/quote] My kids have PE 3x a week for 45 minutes a class, music 2x a week for 40 mins a class, art 2x a week for 40 minutes a class, Spanish 2x a week for 40 min a class, drama 1x per week for 45 min a class and science 3x a week in a real science lab for 45 min a class. Their APS elementary school couldn't even come close to this except for Spanish. They also have 1 hour of recess a day and eat lunch in their classrooms instead of the overcrowded cafeteria. [/quote]
