[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the PP who said it was the worst. DD left after a horrible middle school experience. Sure, language program is phenomenal, but the math program leaves much to be desired, had some pretty awful teachers, and the IB program was too rigid for DD--very much a "our way or the highway" approach. It's a great school for the right kid, and we did enjoy the primary years, but it ultimately came down to the fact that school was not accommodating whatsoever to DD's mild learning disabilities and the curriculum/teachers refused to cater to her needs. She ended up having a great HS experience, despite having to catch up quite a bit in some areas, specifically math. Hope this helps, and good luck![/quote]

Could it be that the aforementioned "mild learning disabilities", contributed to problems in math?  I ask only because our DC's experience with math instruction was very positive.  DC (a WIS lifer since preK for 3-yr. olds) scored in the 96th percentile on the math portion of the SAT they took as a middle school student.  I attributed their ability to do so to the math instruction they received at WIS.   Perhaps the real story lies somewhere between your DC and my DC. [/quote]
