[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't think about that point about specialty programs being K-8. Is Hyattsville Middle that bad? -[b] I don't think that it is "bad".....I think that people want what they perceive to be a better option. Specialty program middle school programs are smaller and they have the advantage that they move to 6th or 7th grade with their cohort so there are social benefits. [/b] Even with the many young families moving into that area as well? And are the specialty programs that great? [b]Probably not any better that UPES but there is a perception that if they are specialty they must be better. I think that some of the specialty programs are really well run but you need to deal with issues that you don't with neighborhood schools (eg transportation, lack of a parent network, school friends outside the neighborhood).
