It is very likely she will do pre-K again next year with the same teacher/class which I would love. She currently attends half days and next year she will do full days.</p> <p>@erinpye: can't wait for our girls to be in the same class next year!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-will-go-to-preschool-for-2-years#post-2428393 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 21:15:33 +0000 daniellemybelle 2428393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO will go to preschool for 3 years and she will be in the same class for all 3 years as long as we keep her the same number of days per week. We are going to send her to Montessori. However, we may switch to full time for her last year of preschool, so in that case I think she will change classes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-will-go-to-preschool-for-2-years#post-2428122 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 17:17:45 +0000 skipra 2428122@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our school has them in classes by the public school cutoff so they don't repeat unless the parent chooses to do an extra year. I like how they do that so they are with the same kids that will be in the same grade all the way through. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-will-go-to-preschool-for-2-years#post-2428105 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 17:10:27 +0000 KT326 2428105@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Different.

She's going to a different school next year for pre-k, that doesn't take kids until 4, so pre-k again, but a different school and class. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-will-go-to-preschool-for-2-years#post-2428065 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 16:42:12 +0000 Finfan 2428065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our preschool is mixed ages (3s and 4s) so she could be in the same classroom but we are hoping for a different time of day.

DS's school has breaks up classes by age. So there's a 2's class, an early 3's class, and older 3's class, VPK and Advanced VPK for the oldest kids who aren't quite old enough for Kindgergarten. We started DS in 2's last year, he's in older 3's this year, and he'll be in regular VPK next year. Then it's off to KG. :crying: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-will-go-to-preschool-for-2-years#post-2427950 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 15:44:07 +0000 DillonLion 2427950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're in Montessori so the classes are split up as follows: </p> <p>1 year - 18 months: Infant Class<br /> 18 months - 3 years: Pre-Primary Class<br /> 3 years - 6 years: Primary Class </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-will-go-to-preschool-for-2-years#post-2427898 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 15:29:19 +0000 lilyann 2427898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Different classes but it is at a daycare. They have 1 class for younger pre-k and 1 class for older pre-k. So I am assuming he will do both. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-will-go-to-preschool-for-2-years#post-2427897 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 15:27:57 +0000 birdofafeather 2427897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>different if we stayed here. they have a 2s, 3s and 4s. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-will-go-to-preschool-for-2-years#post-2427870 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 15:17:47 +0000 yellowbird 2427870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Different.

Most of the kids are 4.5, so yes, if she were to go back to the same school, she'd be in the same class (and I'd like it that way). However, free pre-K is an option here, so I'm hoping to get a place at one of our choice schools for that in the fall instead. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-will-go-to-preschool-for-2-years#post-2427830 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 15:05:52 +0000 winniebee 2427830@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Different. He is in the preschool at the Montessori school now and will be in junior kindergarten in the fall. We had the option to do preschool again (3-4 year olds) or the jr kidnergartne (4-5 year olds). Its more of a pre-k I guess. I know most Montessori schools group kids aged 2-6 altogether but this school does not. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-will-go-to-preschool-for-2-years#post-2427828 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 15:04:26 +0000 fancyfunction 2427828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She will move as our school has one 2's classroom, two 3's and two 4's. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-will-go-to-preschool-for-2-years#post-2427796 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 14:57:03 +0000 Andrea 2427796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Different.

The Pre-K (4's) classroom is definitely a different level than the preschool rooms. They move kids up when they are ready and space is available. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-will-go-to-preschool-for-2-years#post-2427760 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 14:38:44 +0000 looch 2427760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Different class, although this time last year I thought my son was going to be in the 4s for a second year, rather than move to the 5s room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-will-go-to-preschool-for-2-years#post-2427759 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 14:38:12 +0000 mauxie 2427759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our center has "jr preschool" (2s), "preschool" (3s), and "pre-K" (4s). The kids don't necessarily move up the day after they turn the next age though, some move up a bit earlier/later based on the actual opening available and readiness. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-will-go-to-preschool-for-2-years#post-2427756 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 14:36:42 +0000 Mamaof2 2427756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's how they do Pre-K at our school.<br /> DS missed the cut off for K by 23 days so he had to take Pre-K again - they moved him to other Pre-K classroom so he would have a new teacher </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-will-go-to-preschool-for-2-years#post-2427750 Tue, 19 Jan 2016 14:35:18 +0000 Bao 2427750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Will they be in the same class for both years, or move to a new class? </p> <p>My daughter is in preschool this year, and will go again next year. Her class is 3 and 4 year olds, and she just turned 3 before the school year started. I always assumed she would move to another classroom, because there are other rooms in the school...but now I'm not sure? She fits the criteria for her current room, so I'm curious now... </p>
