[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are interested in applying for middle school placement via the lottery this October, but we're not familiar with how teaching is done at the school. From what we gather from the HB-Woodlawn's website, it seems that there is a higher degree of independent study given to students. Do HB Woodlawn middle schoolers spend their time doing their own research and planning their coursework independently (akin to college-style study), or do they rely on designated textbooks and workbooks outlined by the teacher? How much face-to-face teaching and assessment quizzes are given at the school? [/quote] I can’t speak to the middle school curriculum at H-B, but all Arlington high school students can take the “Independent Study” elective with a teacher sponsor. [/quote]
