[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My friend's above-grade-level son is in 8th grade at Stuart Hobson - hoping to go to SWW next year.[/quote] We've know a dozen of SH students in the neighborhood who are IB and UMC since they were tots. Most of the parents supplement considerably, particularly for science and social students (not tracked, many kids working below grade level, some bringing their behavioral problems to the classroom). Nice, resilient kids, but generally not GT material and none of them advanced foreign language students. We've decided not to bother with SH for a rising IB 5th grader. Far too many poorly prepared and rowdy kids would be in class with ours. Hoping for BASIS, Latin or fi aid at a private. If not, we'll move and return to our Hill home as empty nesters. [/quote]
