[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're in MoCo (districted to Rachel Carson, so closely watching the whole elementary school study set for this year, since that school is so overcrowded) with one daughter. She is still a few years away from kindergarten, but I wanted to get a sense of what kindergarten is like in MCPS. I've heard all sorts of horror stories about how "kindergarten is the new 1st grade" and "the kids have tons of HW and no play time." Obviously, play time is so critical for young kids' development, so that concerns me. So for current/recent parents of kindergartners in MCPS: does your child have HW? if so, how much? how much does MCPS try to incorporate unstructured play time into the day (to the extent you can with a full classroom of kids)? Thanks![/quote] Helicopter mom - you just said she is years away from this, but yet you are already concerned. :roll: Just chill out and enjoy toddler and preschool years. MCPS will suck just as much then than now. [/quote]
