Yes, unenroll. DL for preschool kids just doesns't work no matter how hard the teacher tries to engage them. Their brains just aren't wired for it yet.

DL is bogus, but you aren’t paying for it, and if they reopen and you feel comfortable sending DC, you’ll have a spot.

Not OP, but I plan to invest in some learning apps, Bob books, go to the zoo, the Playseum, the playground, and teach my kids as much as I can. I might even look into a private, half-day preschool. Pre K is not mandatory and I'm not interested in dealing with schools taking attendance or begging my kids to pay attention to like I did in the spring.

If you unenroll for PK3, you lose your spot for PK4. DL May be worthless, but I would at least do what I need to hold the spot for (hopefully!) later in the year and next year.

But our daughter is prek-3 and, if its dl all year, then we will definitely pull her. If it's a wait and see we might give it a try with the hope that they will open in winter.


NP. Yes, for sure. Check email.DL for the first quarter at least.

There is no way any school will be open in winter for in person learning.

In my opinion, distance learning for 3 and 4 year olds completely negates the purpose and benefits of Pre K. I think I might unenroll my kids and try again next year.

Does it make sense to unenroll? DL for PK3 seems like a waste of time.
