[quote=Anonymous]I think it’s helpful to remember that kids at JR take eight (8) full credits per year, while kids at Walls take seven, and kids at many privates take six. So the academies aren’t taking away from the classic core of five academic subjects, or even from a reasonable set of electives. They’re total add-ons. And if your kid doesn’t want to join an academy, they shouldn’t! No one has to. My kid didn’t join one until the week school started and no one gave us any trouble about it—he just decided to join one to be with a friend.[/quote]
