[quote=Anonymous]Also, for the Friends parent - were your kids ever in lower school? And if so, how long ago if they are now in college (Ivy equivalents no less!)? Things change, the economy has changed, maybe just maybe the admissions standards for the lower school have changed a bit? Just maybe? I love the values of the school - they are lovely - and I think Friends does a fine job in the lower schools of getting all kids up to higher academic standards, but it does not know how to deal with kids who are working much above grade level. It just doesn't. I have very recent first hand experience with this. I don't mean to trash the school but the lower school is definitely better for some kids than others. [/quote]
