[quote=Anonymous]Hi, I'm a new poster with one child at ATS and another starting in the fall. I wanted to share my experience with a couple of points that were raised. First--I think the tucking in your shirt thing might be from the past (my daughter has never tucked in her shirt, which would be weird with leggings). The homework in kindergarten was writing three or four sentences and for the last year it's been reading for 20 minutes. We haven't found it onerous--for me the value has been my awareness of what she's learning and how she's progressing. I also really value the diversity which is very rich given the many students from immigrant families from all over. What I like about the school philosophy is an expectation of excellence for all students. It's been a good fit for my daughter and she is happy there. I wish you well in your decision between two good options.[/quote]
