[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Spring Hill ES has a yearbook where the kids say what they want to be when they grow up? Kids at my school are figuratively just learning to run and jump.[/quote] LOL! It was just the six graders. I don't think the lower grades had a "grow up to be" item below their pictures. You really see a lot of family influence in the choice of the kids, many of which are stereotypical based on their cultural background, and also a sign of the times: quite a few kids indicated they wanted to grow up to be YouTubers. We moved to the area a couple of years ago and I can say that Spring Hill ES is definitely more demanding, both in terms of the general and AAP classes. I am not going to sit here and argue whether this is good or bad for the kids, but it at least makes parents like us happy that our kids are being put through their paces rather than coasting through.[/quote]
