[quote=Anonymous]"It seems to me that in ES, kids are generally just kids, and barring a few cases the curriculum is generally the same. The peer group issues start to come into effect later in the schooling process. I don't have any real data to back this up though; just my own feelings so take that for what it's worth! " also my sense. If your ES does a good job of not ignoring non-FARMS kids then your child will be learning what they need to learn and negative social issues should not be too significant. MS and HS - social issues are the biggest concern in my view. It's entirely possible that a HS"s academic offerings could be stellar, but if i'm worried my kid will get beat up or be more likely to hang out with kids not spending their time well then it's a non-starter. sigh - which is why we have a few years until we need to seriously house hunt...[/quote]
