[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hey-

I'm a rising 9th grader who excels academically but is really struggling in a public school environment (FCPS). Everything is very slow and repetitive for me, and although I am fighting to get into more advanced classes and to access higher-level curriculum, I keep running into bureaucratic roadblocks. I'm looking for a private option that will allow me to learn at a faster pace- someplace maybe with smaller class sizes and teachers who are willing to work with students to make sure their needs are being met. Additionally, I'm worried that I wouldn't fare so well in a sporty-cliquey environment, and this is a major concern for me as I search for private schools. I can hold my own socially, but would prefer to be surrounded by other students who are deeply invested in their studies. Please send along any recommendations. Open to co-ed or all boys, religious or secular. Money not a consideration at this point.

Thanks!

PS I know I'm late for this year- looking at 10th grade.[/quote]

So NOT written by a rising 9th grader. [/quote]

Why not?  He says he excels academically, so obviously he has strong writing skills.  My DS could easily have written this...he is a rising 10th grader.  Some kids are gifted...<b>just because yours is mediocre doesn't mean others need be.</b>[/quote]

Way to go low there, PP. :roll: [/quote]
