I am thus far NOT thrilled with our local government-sponsored pre-k outfit.
Yes, I filled out the app late, but why lie to my face and tell me all letters will be going out 8/19 when they obviously aren’t? I just called to check (because I haven’t gotten anything) and was told (by someone else) “Oh, no, those letters were from applications filled out in June. I know there’s a waiting list.” Oh, really? The lady I talked to obviously lied about that to me, too. GRRR.
So it looks like pre-k is out for the time being.
I still find it hard to believe there’s all this rigamarole…where I grew up, if you were the right age, YOU GOT IN AND WENT TO SCHOOL. (Unless I just didn’t know otherwise. Mom?) Though I’ve had other friends tell me the same thing…
I don’t remember there being a waiting list, or having trouble getting in. Maybe there are more preK kids there??? I don’t know how it runs now here either. I suspect there might be a waiting list of some sort. So…………..is there any other program to check for him?
Yeah, paid preschool.
