[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have a current 9th grader. Appears to have very little rigor and zero to little homework, but has an over 4.0. I’m hearing that workload increases in 10th. 
Child likes JR a lot- very vibrant, tons of activities. Certain team sports are hard to make but he enjoys going to games. 
Has made some new friends from classes and activities. 
Overall no regrets, except occasionally wondering if we should have moved to MD and done BCC for more rigor. [/quote]

We have a 9th grade girl and exact experience and grades. Hoping for more rigor and actual homework next year. Her teachers are great - we did PTCs with them and had a good feeling about them all. Kid is really happy. The projected enrollment numbers for next year show fewer kids and she already has less kids in the grade than when they were at Deal. I just checked and she said none of her classes except maybe music has more than 22 kids. That said, as a PP noted, she’s highly motivated. Not sure what her brother’s experience will be in three years. [/quote]
