I agree with Bostonman. It is entirely what you make of the experience. I can say that years ago when my son was in preschool he qualified for Developmental Preschool through SPS. (great program btw) I was scared to death to send him to Roxhill. Why? Because I listened to what others told me. But Alki was full so I was ‘forced’ to go to Roxhill. (I actually live closer to Roxhill) When I went to Roxhill I found the best teachers and great kids. I was very happy. But I was scared to go because I heard it was *bad*. My son went to preschool and transitional kindergarten there and then went on to Arbor Heights where we were happy too (Arbor Heights is our reference school). I now have one child at Arbor Heights and one at Pathfinder. But I am glad I got over that phobia of Roxhill because otherwise I never would have met some wonderful people and my son would not have had a wonderful experience.
