[quote=Anonymous]My kids attend/attended a progressive k-8. What has struck me is that year after year, kids from the k-8 have risen to the top of their high schools. Not every kid, of course. But frequently and regularly, which to me speaks to the progressive model. Otherwise, the k8 had a freakish amount of bright kids. They have become valedictorians (where measures), presidential scholars, etc. And this is from a small school. And their high schools range from progressive to traditional to public magnet. But I agree. It doesn’t work for everyone, but I also argue that it can be an effective and successful model.[/quote]
