[quote=Anonymous]Speaking as an alum and now parent: Turnover: The turnover rate is an average, and reflects a school that has both a core of long-term folks (mine is far from the only second-generation family attending) and a rotating population of diplomats/short-term expats. Yes, saying goodbye to dear friends was difficult - but meeting new people every year was also positive. I can't imagine spending a decade+ with the same 60 kids... turnover prevents social dynamics from freezing in place. As to your point 5, at least three of them are in my kid's class... I think you mentioned in your other thread that your child's birthday is late in the year. My experience has been that the date cutoff is rigid in both directions, but I wonder if they would be more flexible for a kid coming in with limited French background (as I assume from your mention of the immersion program). Maybe starting in grande section would be an easier transition? I can ask my kid how much interaction there is between the immersion group and the regular classrooms.[/quote]
