[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=PVandenberg]Thanks this is helpful! It is a good point about being geared towards younger kids and I have no concerns about specific procedures, totally agree with you on need for regiment in any school! I also think young kids really enjoy routine and learning/mastering the "rules" - -

Did you feel that you had transparency into what happens in the classroom? For example, do you get feedback on how your child is doing or know what they are learning/planning to be taught each week/ or month etc.?[/quote]

DP. We get a weekly newsletter that goes over what they are learning, but that's really it. There is one parent-teacher conference per year (around Thanksgiving), but you can request to meet more frequently. (We usually do 1 or 2 additional ones per year.) The same is true for our kid at CCES. We've never done private, but it's possible you get more information there.

You asked above if you feel like kids get lost at RHES. Absolutely not. The principal says hi to my kid each day. The teacher we had last year and the one this year are warm and nurturing (though that may be specific to our teachers -- I certainly don't know them all). My kid definitely loves going to school. But there is not a lot of hand-holding of parents. I'm in the PTA so get information that way, and we go to all the community events. But beyong the weekly newsletter, I[b] am not getting details of what my kid is doing[/b]. [/quote]

That could be said of every school, even in a classroom with fewer students. Unless you proactively ask your kid's teacher how kid is doing as frequently as you need, you may not know much about what's happening in their classes (including p.e., art, music etc.).[/quote]
