[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As my child moved to 9th grade, I haven't noticed a huge change from middle school. The main difference is the switch to two English classes in 9th and additional writing. We weren't that interested in changing: I think our child appreciates the consistency, and being with the same small group of students. I can understand moving if you're looking for different extracurriculars or a change.[/quote] OP here. From what we've seen in the middle school, it's a huge focus on memorization and study skills. These are great skills to have, but I've been unimpressed with the lack of critical thinking and writing skills. Is there really more of this in high school? I'm also concerned about how some beloved teachers have recently left the high school. [/quote]
