I need a good preschool!!?

Question

My son is 4 and will turn five in November.He missed the cutoff date for school so now I need a good preschool for him to go to.We make too much money for him to go to pre-k.The thing is that he is super smart and needs to be learning and not just playing all the time.Believe me,I am not just being partial and I really need help with this!We live in Hawkins,Texas.If anyone has an answer for me I would appreciate it.

Answer 1

F.Y.I. (for your information) there is like NO preschool where u do work all the time !!!! and your not always playing your also learning how to write, sing different songs and draw things!!! and i think your son would also like to play rather than work all the time, even though he's smart!!!

who cares if he plays all the time HE'S 4 turning 5

he may as well play while he still has lots of time!!!!

Answer 2

Kids learn with play! They don't sit at desk all day. I think what you mean is you want a school that prepares them for school. Most schools do this, but if you want something more check your local phone book under preschools and call around. I would try to put him in a older class if he is more advanced. Good luck.

Answer 3

In my area there are no income limits on Pre-K, only on Head Start.  Are you sure it was Pre-K you looked into?  Check with your local elementary school, social service agencies, and churches to see if there is a program which might help you.

Answer 4

Look for a Montessori school in your area.  They have a very structured curriculum, even for the preschoolers.  I'd have put my son in there if I could have afforded it.

Good luck!
