[quote=Anonymous]My DD is deciding between RMIB and Poolesville Global and can't decide if she wants to have a happier or rigorous high school life. DD has seen the struggles her sibling, who's at RM, has gone through, but DD still likes the environment at RM better than Poolesville. She likes feeling productive and feels like it would help prepare for college, and of course, loves the location of the school because of the food nearby. The part where she hesitates at is definitely the workload and stress factor - DD doesn't want to "experience college twice." Poolesville Global is more relaxed and I think it would be more fun for DD. There would just be more time for extracurriculars and things like that. DD just feels like it's a shame that she got into all programs and might want to go to Global, which is the program that generally, among her peers, is the one that's kind of like "really, you want to go to Global over RM?" Not saying it's a bad program, it just isn't as intense or geared towards rigor as RMIB. DD also isn't particularly focused on the environment and doesn't know if Global will be fit for her. I would really appreciate any comments about teachers, the student environment, stress, workload, etc.[/quote]
