[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]+1.  The problem is that girls in Holton MS will not be prepared for the top notch classes because the curriculum is so slow and limited. So they need extra math. Trust me when I say that the top math girls in MS all supplement. It should not be necessary for the price tag and really exacerbates the wealth gap. [/quote]

This is true. All the top students at Holton have science and math tutors. 
Be prepared to get tutors for your girls in high school [/quote]

That’s obviously wrong. My DD is a top student and has never had a tutor. [/quote]

Yeah yeah, we watched a coworker for 6 years, 2 kids say this at a Big 3. No paid tutors. Just mom and Dad helping, daily.[/quote]

PP here. Let me assure you that this is not the case here. Mom and dad have hectic jobs. Why is it hard to accept that not everyone needs help to do well in math and science?! [/quote]

I would also add, why is it hard to accept that a child’s teacher is happy to provide support if the child were to ask? I can’t think of a teacher at my big 5 school who wouldn’t meet with them during their Study halls etc.[/quote]
