[quote=Anonymous]From my kid's experience and based on a few peers I've talked to, the transition has largely been fine, both socially and academically.

Most of the parents I've talked to said that their kids feel well prepared, but there's maybe one or two HS classes that are challenging. However, the class that's challenging really varies, kid to kid. To me, that says that WES generally prepares them well, but at every school there are those one or two teachers that have really tough classes.

Socially, it seems like kids are doing well. I saw a lot of parents around homecoming and it seemed like all of the kids were going at their new schools and the parents I talked to seemed really happy with how well their kid was doing. My DS isn't very social or outgoing and he's made friends.

Pretty much every high school we visited talked about the ways in which they help new 9th graders integrate, and of course, some schools start in 9th and everyone is new. Also, most of the kids at WES are very involved in choosing which school they go to, so they're pretty excited about becoming a part of the school, probably similar to the way that high school seniors are excited about their college.[/quote]
