What do yall think? Is preK worth the expense? I never figured myself for a mother who would send my child to preschool. It's a fairly rare thing here and I always planned on homeschooling. My daughter is now 4 and begging to go to school. My husband is due for a military move in about a year and she will start in at DOD schools on base after we move so this would give her a head start. We already do alot of Prek and K workbooks at home so essentially we are doing PreK at home now. My husband does want her to go for the socialization factor alone though. I did look into dance and it was going to be around 100/mth for the classes and then extra for the costumes,etc so really I think preschool would be cheaper in the end. There is a church preschool about 2 blocks from our house that has a cheap preschool program 3 hrs a day/3 days a week for 100 a mth. I had also considered sending her there next yr for their K program which is 300/mth but she will only go half a year before we have to pull her out to move. Is it worth it do yall think when we are doing PreK at home? The gymnastics classes though if we go that route to get her socialized more so are less often and more expensive so that doesn't seem like the smarter of the two. Head Start is nearly nonexistant in our area and full with high risk/lower income children so that isn't an option. What do yall think? Did yall send your children? If not were they involved in any activities for socialization? Thanks!!!!:grouphug:
