[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are at Yu Ying that does not have prek3.   For prek4, 19:3.  For k, 17:3.  Very happy.

That is great, but obviously the exception.  And you are all getting hung up on the issue of ratios and ignoring completely the real basis of my original arguments. I'm the only one concerned about these issues?  I don't think so, based on some of the earlier posts about kids being labeled as "problems" or "G&T" that I was responding to. This stuff goes on all the time - just go peruse the SN board to see all the parents whose preschoolers have IEPs.  Preschoolers develop at wildly different rates, and I don't think the system is set up to allow for that.[/quote]

If you stay around on the SN board, you'll find most people even in DC are pretty happy with Childfind and early intervention services.  So much so that it all seems downhill from there once they have to rely on schools as the LEA.  Preschoolers who have IEPs need them and free services and supports which an IEP provides are not given out willy-nilly or on a whim.  IEPs are hard to get, costs the school system money and certainly the fact that "preschoolers develope at wildly different rates" are taken into account before an IEP is offered.[/quote]
