[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We did PK3 in DCPS and it was fine, then we visited a nice private school in the suburbs and realized how quickly the gap would grow between our kids getting fine and those kids getting something much better. Although it was a financial hit we moved them the following year. During Covid with our kids in person every day the difference was immense but even now there are just so many advantages I feel guilty I can do this for my kids.[/quote] What are the main advantages at such a young age?[/quote] Smaller class sizes, very few disruptive kids if any, more outdoor play time, significantly better facilities, individualized learning with very specific plans and opportunity for advancement for each child, more arts education, lots of experiential learning opportunities and field trips, a smaller community where everyone knows my child… this is just off the top of my head, I know there is more.[/quote]
