[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We've struck out on the lottery the past couple of years and plan to move to a Deal feeder neighborhood for our lower elementary school kiddos from NE if we don't get a better school option for next year--is there a tangible difference between Lafayette, Murch, and Janney? I know Lafayette is a huge school- but other than the number of classes per grade, are they all pretty similar? Is there a difference in how much computer/devise usage there is in each school for learning instruction? Thanks in advance.[/quote]

Just find the housing within any of those school boundaries that works best for you, because the differences between those three schools are probably pretty negligible. I can't speak to Janney or Lafayette, but the device learning at Murch wasn't overwhelming. In fact, I appreciated that my kid learned to type at such an early age (I didn't really do so until taking a typing class in like 10th grade).

[b]I guess I would be concerned about overcrowding at Lafayette, however. It's at the point where they're going to start reducing the number of PK4 classes offered because they're running out of room for the compulsory grades (this may be neither here nor there in your instance, however).

Lafayette actually increased the number of PK4 classes this year (to 4, from 3 the last few years).[/quote]
