26 students in each of the 4 K classes at Woodlin.

We have 43 kids in two classes this year.

Those are huge. My kid had 19 last year, and first grade is 21.

We went from 7 to 6 K classes.

But was that due to lower enrollment or increase in class size guidelines?

I think it was a bit of both. Might have eeked out a 7th class if the guidelines were the old ones. But lower than last year.

16 over here in Silver Spring.

In our district it is often a result of late registrations (classes are set and late registrants are added when it's too late to create another class)

I wonder if that was due to the increase in class size guidelines, and not a decrease in enrollment.

1st half of the year was 25 each class 3 classes
2nd half, one kid got transferred to my kids class because the other teacher couldnt handle him and then another kid was added/transferred from a different state so it became 24,25,27.

One of the cons of having a 30-year teacher but my son still had a great experience. Better in the first half and took about 2-3 months for the class dynamics to stabilize but thats public education.

27 here...

Class of '25 K size for a non Focus/Title I school was 28.

That's too big, but schools are trying to save money.

How are Kindergarten class sizes looking across the county?
