@Logan Apparently when Cap Hill folks advertise for nannies they include the perk of enrolling your child, if applicable, in a Pre-K program. The former Council Chairman Kwame Brown had hearings on this issue of out-of-state students enrolled in DCPS last fall. The consensus was many DC gov't workers that live in MD have managed to work the system to enroll their children in DCPS through various methods including using relatives in-city addresses.

On a separate issue... to be contrarian don't studies of Headstart, Evenstart, Jumpstart, etc., Pre-K show that by the 3rd grade students who participated in these programs show no measurable difference than their peers who did not participate.

Early immersion is laudable, but is this subsidized day care or real early childhood educational enrichment?
