[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a teacher at GW, As far as the 10 students that left. Some moved out of state, one was out of district and was sent back to Hammond, and a few had parents who moved to Fairfax County and so had to also change schools. While I am sure that there may be some that may not like GW, [b]I have never had anyone tell me that they were leaving GW because they were unhappy with the education they were receiving.[/b] Frankly, most of the teachers at GW are excellent. They work very hard and go the extra mile for your children. Like any place, including the private schools, there are always exceptions. A great education is a partnership between the student, their parents and their teachers. This is true whether you go to Sidwell Friends or GW. If you want your kids to be successful, get involved. At dinner, ask your kids what they learned at school. Communicate with the teacher. Shoot them an email whenever you have a question. Check Blackboard or whatever website the teacher has as a resource for you. We all want the same thing: happy students who love to learn![/quote] Just because they didn't personally tell you, doesn't mean it isn't happening. Why do you think the parents moved to Fairfax County? Duh. [/quote]
