[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any serious discussion is appreciated. We are currently in the Kilmer pyramid but will make the efforts to move if there is significant benefit. The child is a rising 6th grader and is decent in math (top in his AAP class) but is not particularly driven -- he feels comfortable being with other easy going kids. We are hoping he could be a bit more focused on his study, if there's a good peer group but my older one at Kilmer is drifting without much positive influence from his peers (maybe it's him, not them -- but who knows). We don't know Cooper well, but the anecdotal stories at Longfellow are just brutal -- the kids there are just insanely driven to ace in all kinds of competitions. Would Cooper offer an environment that's more competitive than Kilmer, but more relaxed than Longfellow? [/quote] Honestly, public schools of all sorts are going to be very competitive environments for the brightest students. These are high stress, high quality environments. If you want low stress high quality environments, you need private school.[/quote]
