[quote=Anonymous]K8 schools are terrific and our child loved the experience. The only rub is you really need to think of leaving earlier than 8th grade. My child left after sixth and it was pretty easy to have a bunch of schools to choose from. Years on and my kid is a better student than most of the kids who started at the school at a younger age. You are aware from a young age that your child will be applying out someday so you are watching the grades more, you are making sure they are in the right classes more. Friends who stayed until 8th said it was stressful and highly competitive with the cohort because everyone had to leave and usually the good students want a few schools. Everyone gets into school but it seems you have an easier time if you leave earlier. If you are not worried about it, then I highly recommend a K8 school.[/quote]
