[quote=Anonymous]My kids went to St Johns in Georgetown which is Reggio.  It is a fantastic preschool and my kids, now in middle-high schools years, have always been identified as extremely curious, risk-taking students.  Of course, some of this is innate personality but I truly believe that each of them internalized a lot of that from St Johns. They all have fairly different personalities but in this they are all similar.   They often keep delving into a subject even when other kids have stopped because they "found the answer".  They went on from St Johns to excellent DC area privates and I have no regrets about how much money St Johns cost, even though it is expensive, because I do think it set them up to be successful students with a love of learning and an unusual level of trust in their teachers' intellectual honesty and commitment.  That said, I dont believe that St Johns is the only place you can find that but I do believe that a preschool with a great student-teacher ratio that uses an active, engaged philosophy, is the key.[/quote]
