[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trying to get a better sense of the vibe, for lack of a better word, at RMIB. DC is very intellectually curious, and was self-motivated to apply to RMIB because middle school has been very academically underwhelming, especially after CES, which was a great fit for him. The program itself seems like it will play to his strengths (analytical, strong writer), but I’m wondering if he will be surrounded by primarily type-A competitive kids. DS is really more of a laid-back thoughtful kid who is there to soak up knowledge rather than compete. Our home school is strong, with a good academic peer group that’s not over-the-top intense, but I’m concerned about several more years of languishing with inadequate honors-for-all English and Science there in 9th/10th. We don’t know anyone IRL in the RMIB program, so I thought I might ask here. [/quote] Hard to say until your kid starts there and depends on cohort and the type of vibe he enjoys. [/quote]
