Trinity,
Our intuition tells us that the multi-age setting would indeed be best for our son. But I think we are both concerned about his adaptability to the 5-day program when his current and only scholastic experience is a 1-day/week parent/child class. I will look into doing a one-week trial as you suggest. It would be nice if it were possible to do it now before the next school year due to enrollment logistics.
Yah! GreenBug - I agree that it would be nice if you could do it this year before the money becomes an issue next year! I think this is reasonable, once they've met you and him.
