[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think you’re crazy. Deal is very crowded and t[b]he kids are really intense because the apples don’t fall far from the tree[/b]. Hardy would be a haul for us but I would prefer a [b]better mix of kids[/b]. My child is new to DCPS and she is still searching for a nice group of girls at Deal.[/quote] I think the intensity of kids is dependent on the peer group - as well as who you socialize with. How do you define a "better" mix of kids? [/quote] From different backgrounds.[/quote] "Better mix of kids" and "different backgrounds". Nice. Look, especially to the PP with the 2nd grader, no matter WHERE you go to middle school, there is going to be middle school social drama, so just accept that right now and go with it. Yes, Deal is big, but with the team based approach they use it keeps the place smaller. We've always been impressed with the faculty but the last two years have been exceptionally in terms of the teaching. I think you need to stop following the crowd here, go visit both schools, and see what works best for your family. There is just no one size fits all experience.[/quote]
