[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To me (IB Hardy parent) feeder school student is the concept which matters the most (feeders are on average better prepared).

However, IB is also a valuable concept: I am unable to drive my kid throughout the District  for playdates. And the Hardy playground is so unpopulated on Saturdays, as most of the Hardy kids live far away. I would like my kid to walk to the playground and be able to just find more of his friends there on weekends, as it used to be when he was at Stoddert: no matter the time of the day, on Sat. & Sun. we would go to Stoddert playground and find a few of his schoolmates.

We are happy to read here, and hear from other sources and friends that are turning to Hardy, that we will have more feeder school students next year (i.e. more advanced students)  as well as more IB neighborhood students.
[/quote]Do you really think that middle school students hang out at playgrounds? Seems unlikely.  My kid went to Hardy OOB but I don't think even if we had lived down the street that she would have gone to the playground.  She was more into meeting her friends in Georgetown and shopping.[/quote]

Yes, boys do, absolutely!  Soccer, baseball, tennis...  Maybe girls don't  do as much.[/quote]Oh, sure, that makes sense now.  Thanks[/quote]
