[quote=Anonymous]I'm 16:35. My kids were fine at JW. Maybe not as great an experience as their warm, smaller elementary school, and definitely not as good as high school, where they have more independence, but no problems.

Middle school can be a challenging time for any kid - they're growing up, starting to hit puberty, trying to be more independent, etc., but I think JW does as good a job as most with kids at this time of life.

They had some great friends, and I think they both liked having a larger pool of kids to mix with. They did both fall out of touch with a few of their ES friends that they didn't have classes with, which was sad, but they also made a lot of new friends.

Judging by their performance in HS AP classes (and AP tests), JW prepared them well. No issues there.

The longtime principal retired at the end of last year. I was sad to see her go, but I really like what I've seen of the new principal (who was JW's assistant principal). My youngest will be starting JW next year, and I have no worries for him.[/quote]
