[quote=Anonymous]We just started in the PK4 program, and we love it. We had a great experience at a charter school last year, which was much more diverse. We miss that, but the logistics of the drop off/pick up prompted the move to Lafayette. I agree with previous comments that it's a very close community, which is nice. The HSA does a great job fostering a sense of community. After school enrichment offerings are fantastic. We are happy that they have started incorporating more foreign language into the curriculum. I wish there was more of it, but some is better than none. There seems to be more outside and play time compared to our charter school, which has been great. The little ones need that I think, and our son is more excited to go to school than he was last year. He is learning new things every day, and is really exited about learning to read. I haven't read through all the comments (I can only stomach so much negativity), but you should know that the PK4 program (all programs) are lottery based, so your little one isn't guaranteed a spot. Also, there isn't enough room for all the kids in the aftercare program. Something to consider if you're a working mom.  I don't know the aftercare situation at other schools, but if you're shopping around that might be something you can ask about. Good luck!
