Preschool class size/setting priority—information/action
AGS has more preschoolers than spots. We will need to have a smaller morning class to maintain our special education students (4) along with some non-IEP kids for a total around 12.
- Dr. Kampwerth reached out to non-residents who signed up to let them know AGS can’t hold a spot for non-resident student.
- Still waiting for a few decisions on whether a student goes on to kindergarten or stays in preschool.
- There will be very few if any spots for 3-year olds again.
At the present time, no changes to staff.
