[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]WTF free private PK3 in Ward 3. That is so messed up. Sickening.[/quote] agree[/quote] Free public school in rich neighborhoods is just fine starting at age 5 but somehow “sickening” at age 3? GMAFB.[/quote] In a world with finite resources (and even DC has a limit on what it can spend) thinking through how much value there is to providing PK3 in a wealthy part of town when, IIUC, PK3 is still not universal in less wealthy parts of town is certainly a fair question. The reason we've added PK4 and now PK3 is there is a lot of evidence the earlier intervention leads to better outcomes for lower income kids - I'm not sure there are a lot of kids in Ward 3 who really benefit from this though it certainly saves their parents some money. I also have real concerns about public monies going to a private pre-school.[/quote]
