[quote=megleyb@yahoo.com][quote=Anonymous]C/A definitely has a real campus. It has a brand new gym and is expanding further this year. If you mean athletic facilities, it does have the new gym, volleyball, etc., and partners with the local YMCA for swimming, workouts, gym classes. Look at its facebook page. There's also a baseball field and park across the street that the school uses. As for "intellectual peers", my C/A kid's friends are in Mensa (if you are into that sort of thing - sniff sniff); two scored an astonishing 35 on the ACT; one scored a perfect 800 on SAT math. Two have scored 750 on math and chemistry subject matter tests. Another friend took a foreign language class at NOVA during his junior year. Another took a college-level course at NOVA during summer and got an A. Maybe my kid's class is unique . . . but this school is doing something right. I just wish I had found it earlier for my older "quirky bright" children.[/quote] Thank you, that is great to know! I just signed up for a tour. I know the area quite well but didn't know that they built a new gym. Also, good to know about the Mensa kids, since our DC is also in Mensa (we get great discounts for CTY classes, much more than the Mensa admission price!!). Are these classes more for the older grades? (i.e. HS?) We would be looking at the lower school. [/quote]
