[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sucks, but what are you going to do if the school already is tight on space? Our local ES didn't even have a separate gym - just an all-purpose room that couldn't be used because it was the cafeteria - so you have to use classrooms. Having kids run around the hallways is a potential option, but depends on how well that can be monitored (and kids are kids). Somewhat OT, but that's what you get with a lot of private schools. Really impressive facilities. I'm not convinced that they make any real difference, but they are nice to show the parents that they are getting something for all the money they pay in tuition. (Seriously, what makes a difference is the small class sizes and far more individualized attention.)[/quote] Even with the nice facilities, our private encourages kids to go outside. My 6th grader left his muddy rain jacket in his locker today rather than bringing it home. [/quote]
