[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do they try to keep kids in the same cohort from year to year or is it a totally new class each year? [b]Parents who have kids at the school- do your kids keep friendships year to year? Is there a sense of community amongst the parents or do people not really want to invest bc kids only together for a year?[/b][/quote] Bumping up this question - curious if any recently families can share their experience.[/quote] My experience was that it was extremely difficult to meet other families or make connections in class or outside, through school. Everyone in Takoma park seems to meet through other activities like after care, soccer or cubs/brownies/Girl Scouts. It might be different if you join in kindergarten. We didn’t join in K and it was quite a shock to find that there isn’t much community around the schools. There is no PTA committee for welcoming new families, for example.[/quote]
