[quote=Anonymous]Lowell may not be for everyone (particularly those that care about boasting where their kids go to school), and as with any K-8 school, the academic and even social limitations of being in a small place that practically can not differentiate a lot particularly in math may drive kids to leave for MS, however, the "social education" the school provides, the warmth of the teachers and whole community, the wonderful physical setting in the park, and in our experience creative and strong academics that were absolutely preparative for moving on to any school in the city made it a fantastic place for our kids.  
In one class now early in college these are the schools I am aware kids are at: Stanford, Princeton, Northwestern, Northeastern, Bowdoin, USC, Conn College, Wesleyan, Columbia, Bryn Mawr, Claremont, NYU, just remembering off the top of my head. They were at a range of private and public MS and HS, including Sidwell, GDS, Burke, Whitman, Maret, Bullis, St Alban's.
So the point is, if you like the school, don't avoid it because of college placement![/quote]
