[quote=Anonymous]I have one at Robo in 8th but can’t really speak to the differences in stem between the schools. Positive experience overall with the school. I did just want to chime in on your AAP besties comment. While it’s hard to imagine, those kids may drift apart. Robo is a big middle school with 4 teams per grade. AAP kids are distributed across the teams, since there is no AAP at the school. Teams all have multiple honors sections of core courses. Your kid likely won’t have classes with more than a kid or two from the feeder LLIV class they were in. There are two lunch periods as well - your kid may or may not even have lunch with their elementary friends. My kid is thriving and happy but by the end of 8th grade has different close friends. This is all to say that while the transition may seem daunting if you feel LB is a better fit a academically, it may be a big reshuffle either way. [/quote]
