[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess what I don't understand is that if these families had the resources to pay for private PK for an extra year instead of taking free DC PK, why not just pay for a private K? I don't think DCPS would then bump their kid to 2nd the following year when they should be in 1st grade, just as they wouldn't do that for a kid coming from a MD school with a different cutoff.[/quote] A daycare can claim they offered Pre-K and that usually satisfies DC. But private K much rarer. Difficult to get into, and even more expensive, on average, than what daycare Pre-K costs.[/quote] When you live in a $2.8 M house - do you really thing they are doing the trade-off of private K costs?[/quote] It seems that quite possibly they are. Or, their kid can't get into an "acceptable" private. It's brutal out there lately for private school admissions.[/quote]
