[quote=Anonymous]One indication I had that the school was a good fit is that DC wrote off a bad teacher as not representative of the school. In DC's mind, she fit the school and the teacher didn't. And the occasional not-such-a-great-match teacher hasn't ever changed DC's relationship to the school more generally. Probably helps that, even in the younger grades, the kids have lots of teachers each year (e.g. math, science, library, foreign language, PE, music, art, drama) and ongoing relationships with a number of them. Fit has not changed annually from 5 to 12. It's been pretty consistent not only through those years but some before and some after. I think the basics of her personality were pretty well-established and the changes that come with growth and exposure to a particular environment have affected her in ways that are fairly similar to the ways they've affected many of the classmates whom she's closest to.
