[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Children go to MacArthur. They're going to GW. Remember, middle school sucks for everyone. If you are an active parent with capable children, you will do fine.[/quote] Agreed. We heard that GW was like the South Sudan, with heavily armed child soldiers disrupting remedial classes. All the kids there, we were told, would wind up pregnant and living in boxes by high school. We didn;t believe it, we enrolled in GW, and we were right. Middle school is difficult and undignified. Unless you're in one of those $90,000 p.a. Swiss schools, it will be awkward at times. But academically GW open-honors has been generally good (spectacular in a few departments), the general atmosphere is actually relatively calm and civil, and I think our DC has very nice, fun, supportive friends. Call GW and set up a visit and a tour. [/quote]
