They are very play based, especially in PK3.

The title 1 schools tend but to be and what PP was alluding to with JOW

PP is wrong, all DCPS PKs are play based, including JOW. DCPS is pretty amazing across the board for PK because they have very high standards for the teachers -- the vast majority have a masters in early childhood education.

I do think DCPS is more academic in K than some charters (depends on the charter).

Nope, worksheets, homework, math, screens, testing.

It’s pretty ridiculous in ECE what is coming down from central

My kids are at one of the named ECE programs and it has none of these things. I am a little bit skeptical of the single poster in that thread insisting this is everywhere while almost every other poster says it’s not their experience.

FWIW ECE will no longer be run as centrally — at least not in non-T1 schools. ECE coaches are gone, for example. So even if they were going to try to institute this, good luck now. Our school is leaning into Reggio-related coaching and curriculum as the replacement.

Not OP, but you'll get TR4 pretty easily so you won't get ITDS with this list. Personally I would move TR4 down to below JOW.

Disagree, I would not do DCPS ECE, too much focus on academics and screens and not play based.

The new building and playground at JOW are nicer than 2R. CHML is also a good option since you can leave for Maury at K.

Is JOW, LT, Maury and others not play based?
