[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the PP with doubts who went to a second open house tonight.  I felt much better about all of my concerns after this second visit.  The principal is so impressive and engaged.  He seemed to know every kid by name, and everyone seems to love him.  I also noticed much more art EVERYWHERE in the classrooms, and the principal assured me that art and music are woven throughout every day of the program.  (I had concerns that these things would be lacking since they don't have "specials" the way an elementary school might have).  I also feel better about the building after walking around a second time.  Especially loved seeing how one classroom had hay on the carpet from an activity they were doing about farm life -- my DS was verrrry interested in this idea of putting hay on the floor.  Haha!

I still feel like we're taking a gamble by passing up a DCPS which would go until 5th grade, but I think it's the right decision (especially since we're not wild about the DCPS option).  We'll just play the lotto again next year.  Sigh.  Anyway, thanks again to everyone for their feedback.[/quote]

Did you visit CH tonight?[/quote]
