[quote=Anonymous]We are planning a move to the DC metro area this winter and we are trying to figure out the whole school thing. We have 2 sons who, like their parents, are introverted, calm, quiet, steady kids (6.5 and 8.5). Then we have a 4.5 year old daughter who is...not. Her hobbies include scaling furniture, going down the biggest water slides and the highest diving boards we'll allow, making friends with literally every.single.person she meets, jumping off of jungle gyms when there's a perfectly good slide right nearby, running around naked...you get the idea. She's been reading for a bit, and she loves to read hanging upside down on the couch.

(yes, we are exhausted. Why do you ask?)

Obviously we work continually on boundaries and limits while also really, really not wanting to take away her fierceness and her fearlessness. We love her the way that she is and don't want school to stamp that out...but we also need her to learn. Anyway, we're basically looking for suggestions for schools, preferably public but we could possibly make private work...

thanks for any suggestions![/quote]
