[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone heard of Barrie? Is it easy to get into? They have a beautiful campus but have no idea about their academics.[/quote] What grade level? The Lower School (infants through 6th grade) is a Montessori program that is generally full or close to it most years. If you're not familiar with Montessori education, that means mixed-age classrooms (4th-6th grade, 1st-3rd, age 3-kindergarten, age 1-2, infants) where the kids have a lot of latitude to explore learning on their own. The middle and upper school is much smaller right now (probably easier to get into) and is a project-based learning model. It's a very diverse school, and they also run a very popular summer day camp (a friend of mine sends their kid to that).[/quote]
