[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think they focus on critical thinking skills at these schools. That's something that middle class parents value. So, you may not be happy there. Just be sure to ask lots of questions.[/quote] OP here. DC Prep's qualitative eval based on classroom observations included that teachers were asking good questions to promote critical thinking--not just teaching what the right answer is.[/quote] +1 don't listen to what some random DCUM who knows nothing about the school has to say, this is exactly why the DCPCSB does the qualitative reviews of the schools, so you can get a feel for them.
