[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We just left our progressive K-8 for a much more structured middle school. What we loved in K and 1st started to make us very frustrated as our child got older. [/quote] True of many progressive schools. Nature based, laid back, no screens, emphasis on curiosity and asking questions, lots of play, etc. It all works super well when kids are in preschool and K, but once kids aren’t able to read or do math in 1st some of the great aspects feel like a liability. I think it’s fine to jump to a different educational philosophy as a child grows.[/quote]
