[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a child in the program. We were happy with it. I would say I did not see elitist attitudes among my daughter's friends, but I do know that cohorts coming from magnet middle schools come with this history. The year is still young, but some of the changes we see this year are troubling. The most immediate for us is the [b]reorganization of language classes[/b] and combined classes with different levels. Now to be fair, last-year's language classes were also nothing to write home about relative to our middle school instruction. I know some kids also [b]faced problems with reorgization of math[/b]. In general, kids are somewhat demoralized. There is a sense that the administration does not care about the program. [b]It has not been very responsive to concerns[/b], with poor communication (a lot of generalities, very few specific responses to concerns). In our case, I might consider bringing my child back to our excellent home school if things go south, as the watered down program and school tensions may not be worth a very long commute and lost hours each day any longer. [/quote] How were the math and language classes re-organized ? What concerns were the administration not responsive to? .[/quote]
