[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Class sizes at River are generally up to 14 kids. No more than 3 children with hearing impairments are in any class. That would be a max of less than 25%, and there are many classes that have fewer than that. The school has historically essentially been mostly a local Palisades preschool, but enrollment has been going up significantly in recent years with families from more locations, with more retention into the K-3 years. I expect a move and expansion through higher grades will make it less of a neighborhood school and therefore the Palisades proximity will matter less. Given that many River parents seem to want their kids to go on to GDS, Maret, and Sidwell (roughly in that order), being in the vicinity of those schools makes sense. [/quote] A large population also come from outside DC like Bethesda and Arlington. It really isn't just a Palisades preschool. I believe it's 10-15% that are hearing impaired per their website.[/quote]
