[quote=Anonymous]It was horrible for my kid socially. I would be pretty skeptical about attributing results directly to the Upper School model. They had a bump across the board this year, but that's also because they had a big dip previously. In both cases while the US model was employed. Also, the 5th grade at Brent did much worse than the 4th grade, so maybe they mean it benefits overall results? Now because those who leave for charters are self-selecting, I don't think it means the US model is responsible for 5th graders doing worse than 4th graders, but it seems a stretch to look at 4th grade outperforming 5th by 20+ points and say that shows the US is... good for 5th graders.[/quote]
