[quote=Anonymous]Hi, I have searched old threads, checked out the school website, see a lot that I really like about CHDS, and have a few questions:

1. The field education program is the biggest draw for me. I attended a school that had a similar program in middle school and look back on that time as one of the most engaging and enjoyable learning experiences of my life! However, I did find that friends from more traditional academic backgrounds had a better foundation in college. I love the idea of a progressive environment for the younger children (play-based) that moves into an environment that is rigorous and academically demanding in the traditional sense as the kids get older -while still keeping the field education component. Does this shift happen at CHDS?

2. What about the living on The Hill vs off? Is there a social benefit to living on The Hill if your child is in CHDS?

3. How competitive is admissions? Does anyone know actual numbers?

4. Do you have to get in at PK4? Are their any openings in Kindergarten? Are there other years of entry?

Any general comments or insights welcome too! TIA[/quote]
