[quote=Anonymous]We are a current US family (DC1 graduated from SSFS and we just signed our contract to return next year for DC2 even though we contemplated leaving after last year). Both our children have had a great academic, social and athletic experience. The US is our favorite of the 3 divisions and I cannot recommend it enough. Caring thoughtful teachers who know when to nudge you forward or give you extra support to overcome a sticking point. Our oldest came out of there with incredible writing and critical thinking skills and is doing well at the college of their choice and has many close friends from SSFS days. This year has been solid for DC2 - much growth in confidence and intellectual curiosity. We do not love the commute or the price tag but I cannot deny the positive and nurturing learning experience.

You are asking the right questions. I find this forum to be a mixed bag - but that’s the case with all online anonymous forums. A shadow experience might be really helpful for your DC to get a feel for the school day and the kids. Ask to speak to parents in the grades you are entering also and ask pointed questions.

Good luck with your decision (and the move). [/quote]
