[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]op - school got back to me and suggested Trevor day, lrei, Dwight, basis

You guys - I have worked so hard for so long to afford this school. I never go out - I just work. I trusted them that if they saw him tracking academically in a way where he needed help they would tell me. I asked them flat out so many times- so many times they could have said - you know - he could use a tutor. I’m so angry but also just feel like such an idiot and like I got duped by these people. We are signed up for next year for my 10 and 12 yo and all I want to do is take them both out. It feels like such a freaking racket. Not bc I am expecting him to be someone he’s not. But I shouldn’t be finding out the reality of what they think he can achieve when it’s almost too late to do anything to help him. Like - if a kid is never getting into T1 or T2 then say - hey this kid really needs some extra help and say it early! Jfc [/quote]

Again, have your kid take the ISEE before you start spinning out.  The ISEE will give you some data on what he’s learned and also if he’s a good test taker.  Does your school do a practice ISEE the spring of 7th? Also, my kid is a straight A student with 8s and 9s on the ISEE and we applied to LREI. My kid really liked LREI and if you’re downtown and want more progressive school it worth looking at. We found it to be one of the warmer schools we looked at and the kids get into some pretty good colleges.  We’re not ending up there but I wouldn’t dismiss out of hand. I’ve also heard good things about Basis and they’re cheaper.[/quote]
