[quote=Anonymous]They are both excellent schools. With housing as hard to find as it is, focus on that and know you will be in a great school either way (also for Hearst, which covers some of Cleveland Park too). Swing space can be a pain but not a big deal at all to the kids, and the year will go by quickly (we did 2 years in the swing space that Eaton is in now and it was fine...and then it’s so nice to get the brand new facility once it’s done). PK and K at Murch are sort of separate from the older grades (different playground, enter the school on the other side of the building, classrooms in one area of the ground floor) and I think that’s by design to help the younger ones adjust to elementary school. But then they also do a lot of mixing at school wide events and there are “buddy classes” where older kids come in and read, etc. my daughter in K was so proud of having her “friends” in 5th grade who would say hi to her. :) [/quote]
