[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure why you dislike Garrison. Their PK program seems terrific and it is close by. Most families there are really happy. [/quote]
I'm glad to hear this, but was a bit disappointed at the open house. In particular, the PK classrooms they showed seemed miserable. And I don't mean the beige walls or bars on the windows, that I can deal with. I mean they were completely disorganized and chaotic. It didn't seem like much thought went into making it a nice space for the kids. That doesn't take money. I went to the open house on a Saturday morning too, so they should've been at their best. It just seemed like a sad environment for the kids to be in. There wasn't one snippet of delight in the room where 3 year olds spend their day. They apparently sleep near their seat and eat at their seat and I just got the feeling my kid would be tied to her "spot" in the room. Garrison is our "safety" for now, but I was hoping to find something that has a better atmosphere.[/quote]

You should check it out during a school day. It is so much easier to get a real sense of a classroom when the kids and teachers are doing their normal activities. Even if the open houses are over, I bet you'd be able to stop by.  [/quote]
