My kiddo did not like pre-k for many reasons, though it was no academic. He just wanted to be home with me and doing his own thing.
Yes, this is my kid exactly. He has been at his current preschool for almost two years and I don't think he's ever been excited about it. But his face lights up when he knows he gets to stay home on weekends. I really want him to find something to like about school, so I'm hoping that K will give him some pieces of what he needs (even if it's not the perfect solution).
