Dear PoPville – Preschools for the littlest ones?

“Dear PoPville,

I am a Petworth resident with a 1.5 year old. I read the post from Feb 14 about schools in PoPville with considerable interest. It seems like there are more decent options for public and charter schools nearby than I had originally thought. However, I am interested in starting my son in a preschool program at 2.5 years and it looks like the public/charter school options only start at 3 years. I’d love for some more input from PoPville on nearby preschool options for 2.5 year olds. What schools do people like? How expensive are the programs? How is the transition from a private preschool to public/charter schools?”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
