DD ( 3 years old) is starting part time preschool tomorrow and I feel like there are too many kids in her class.
2 teachers: 19 kids
Is that normal?
-
No advice but OMG preschool?!? No way! What a big girl she is now!
-
We had two teachers for 17 kids for public pre-K! Sometimes there'd be a volunteer helper/parent...
-
I teach public pre-k and it's 2:18. When I taught 3 year olds, it was 2:16, so yeah sounds pretty normal (and those are actually smaller class sizes than what's allowed in my state. Technically, we can have 25 four year olds with 2 teachers).
But trust me, it always seems like a lot of kids with a room full of preschoolers
and also, how is she that old already?!
-
Ours will be 2:12 or 13 I think.
-
@petunia354: I know
too fast! @mrbee: @lilteacherbee: cool, thanks!
@Mrs. Yoyo: liking that ratio a lot better than ours! when do you plan on sending him?
-
Woah! LO's school caps the class at 8 kids and there are two teachers per class.
-
Ours is 2:10.
-
My DD's class was 2 teachers and a helper for 18 kids.
-
Last year was 2:12, this year is 1:12.
-
3 teachers (well, head teacher, assistant and nanny) for 16 3 year olds.
-
Ours is 2:15 kids max but it's usually 12 kids at a time thanks to staggered schedules.
-
4:1 for toddlers and 1:10 for early childhood. (3-6)
-
11:1 max 22 in DS room 4:1 max 10 in dd room.
-
The ratio for this fall is 2:22. It's a lot of kids, but they manage it very nicely.
-
I think our state is like 1:11?
-
Sounds ok
-
I think in the 2-3 year old room we're either 4:1 or 5:1.
-
1:10 is the legal limit and what they had at his last school. We have previously had much lower limits and I like them a lot better. We had a 2:10 at the last school.
and also, how is she that old already?!
