[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. My kids are strong students with no special needs or behavior issues. Okay athletes but not a big focus. Relatively extroverted joiners of school clubs and activities. [/quote]

Sounds like my kids, both of whom went to Deal and JR (one graduated, one is a senior). They’ve both had extremely positive experiences, especially at JR, which is big and vibrant and diverse, and offers tons of activities/outlets. Both found their niches, activity-wise, which expanded their social lives and gave them great leadership opportunities. They’ve both had mostly good teachers, and more excellent than bad ones on the extremes.

We’re within walking distance to both schools, which has been great for their independence and sense of community. So if you’re moving to be in-boundary, I’d factor that into the equation. But if that’s lower-priority for you, I agree with a PP that Mount Pleasant is the most desirable IB neighborhood; it’s where I’d move if I didn’t care about school proximity.[/quote]
