[quote=Anonymous]I don't think there are as many parents "looking for free care" out there as OP suggests. I think it's more parents who want their childen to be in supportive, promising, safe school environments where their children can learn and get a head start. So if a school like Sela is signaling that it has promise, there will be plenty of parents who don't care much about Hebrew who apply, not because of "child care" but because their child will learn and thrive. I think there is danger in applying watered down assumptions about families and assigning them to categories you devise that are useful in supporting your biases--poor or rich, engaged or not.
