[quote=Anonymous]We've been happy at TJ with one very extroverted boy and one introverted girl. The middle school IB program is different from HS. I don't think there is any more reading than at other middle schools but I think they do more writing. There is a focus on writing as a "reflection" activity after a unit, after a band performance, etc. I think it's a good self management technique (although DS, who dislikes writing, hates it -- I think it's especially valuable for him!) There is a requirement of community service starting in 6th grade. And, the electives are structured differently with foreign language required starting in 6th grade. [/quote]
