[quote=Anonymous]ATS is a fantastic school. They'll get a great education. Hoffman -Boston is a great school. They'll get a great education. Both have great teachers and the big difference is that ATS has slightly more motivated parents (they signed up for the lottery) and Hoffman -Boston has neighborhood friends. It's also way closer, so the kid won't be in the bus for over an hour a day. I chose a neighborhood, south Arlington title 1 over ATS. You can't go wrong with either choice, but I found the student/teacher ratios were better at my neighborhood school and my kid thrived in a more diverse and less competitive setting. He was able to excel without pressure from peers. I'm sure he would have loved ATS. It's a wonderful decision to get to make![/quote]
