Secretaries: Deborah Brown, Terry Stafford
Talked to Terry:
January town-wide information night.
Pre-K: two-year program with same teachers, first year Pre-K paying $5800/year, second year K not paying. Must be 4 by Sept. 7. Music, art, gym, eat in cafeteria. 8:15-2:30.
Class size 15-18 with one teacher and one teacher's aide. (need to talk to Principal to find out if aide is there all the time – may be a special ed aide).
Can a student enter the Pre-K/K as K?
Not normal but sometimes a child might move in if there's a slot open.
To observe, talk to guidance dept. Jessica Maloney is out on maternity leave. 617-926-7743 or 44.
Registration opens in January. First come first served. $580 deposit. 7-8 slots. Priority placement to fall birthdays. Be prepared to do deposit at the meeting.
Hosmer also has 2 Ks, a K-1, and a K-1-2. Try to stay around 18/class. Most classes have an aide all the time.
