Goddard Preschool. They have branches all over and are very reputable.

Speaking of preschool

I just found out my 4 y.o. is not elegible for Pre-K

Cause she's not economically disadvantaged.



WTF is THAT all about? I didn't know that poor kids were more entitled to an education than kids whose parents work for a living.

I am seriously PO'ed about this.

Tell me about it. In order for my youngest son to get into Pre-K, I would have needed to be an alcoholic, drug using, dyslexic wife beater. He is already reading on his own with certain words. He has the "Letter Factory" game and a couple DVDs, and he loves them. He is constantly taking the letter cards from the game and spelling words.

I doubt my daughter will be able to get in either. She is trying to keep up with her older brother in the reading department.

I couldn't get my son into pre-K either. He is now is Second so that was 4 years ago. But one of the questions ask was if he had an older brother or sister already in school? Seems that if he did he was eligible, or if I was divorced, what my income was and if my son had a learning disability.
The age has changed for entry, it's you have to be 4 on or before Sept 1st for Pre K.

All private schools offer pre-K. If she's not economically disadvantaged, this is the obvious choice if you want to give her a leg up for when she goest to first grade.
