[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your 4th grade school (independent? DCPS? DCPC school?) worked for you in 4th grade, I'd go talk to the school about returning for 5th. They may be willing to offer the child special help to return. Unless the kid faces major social challenges as a general rule, he or she will make the adjustment on good form. I was a military brat who switched schools mid-year twice as a kid, hardly the end of the world. A BASIS 5th grader returned to my kid's class at our in-boundary school, which she'd attended for years, well into the school year. Parents said reported that she was miserable at BASIS but was all smiles back at the school. They say that the curriculum at the in-boundary school isn't really challenging enough for her, but they supplement with a tutor and on-line math. [b]BASIS is hardly the be and end all for 5th grade, or later. [/b][/quote] Can't you just answer the question without the swipe at BASIS? Sheesh.[/quote]
