[quote=Anonymous]My child is at Two Rivers (preK).  I've been very happy.  Overall, I really do feel like I won the lottery getting a space at two rivers.  I had been thinking we might leave for the suburbs or upper northwest if we couldn't get a spot at a good school-now I feel like I can comfortably stay where we are until at least 5th grade-maybe through middle school.  The small playground does not seem to be a problem for my child-although I was nervous about it too.  They also go to the middle school gym for additional exercise space.  While the block the school is on is industrial, the rest of the surrounding neighborhood is well maintained residential or commercial (near the metro).  I would encourage you to take a walk around the neighborhood if you are hesitant-I think you will find it is nicer than you think.  I love the weekly community meetings-they help foster a very strong sense of community across age groups.   I find myself wishing I could have attended a school like two rivers when I was a child.  The kids seem very happy and engaged.  My daughter always comes home excited about what they are learning-I think all of the field trips really help keep up the enthusiasm.  Right now, her class is learning about nutrition and they are going on trips to the supermarket, a restaurant, and a working farm.  I get the sense that more and more kids are staying through middle school each year, but many do still leave in the upper grades.  [/quote]
