There's that "thrive" word again.  :roll:

SOME kids can thrive in a center.  SOME kids can thrive in a LLIV.  SOME kids can thrive in 2 classes per grade (which is the recommended critical mass based on the research).  SOME kids can thrive in just one class per grade.  SOME kids can thrive with just a few other Level IV peers in a mixed classroom.

The BEST environment for MOST kids is 2 classes per grade for critical mass.[/quote]

I'm not sure I agree.  We recently made the decision to keep DS at the LLIV, precisely because there is only 1 full class of AAP at each grade, and the teachers are all exceptional.  At the Center, we felt the teachers ran the gamut -- some were great, some not.

So for us, we chose LLIV because we basically know who will teach my son for the next 4 years -- and they're STELLAR.[/quote]
