[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The fact that all Wells parents plan to lottery to other schools is what I would expect.  So lots of parents just do it earlier before middle school.  Ultimately very few parents with means will stick with the school pyramid all the way through.  No judgement, I wouldn’t send my kid to Coolidge.[/quote]

NP. Curious as to the value of sticking with the school pyramid all the way. In my experience, kids' social interactions change a great deal between middle school and high school, and some may indeed benefit from a fresh set of faces and challenges in high school.

Also curious to hear specifics from the person who has "heard" negative feedback about Wells. I live in the neighborhood and see only positive developments. [/quote]

I don’t know the value of sticking with the pyramid.  I just know the vast majority of parents with means leave before Coolidge.  They can say it’s for fresh social perspectives but it is really because they don’t think Coolidge is rigorous enough or safe or whatever.  Again no judgement I flat out say I wouldn’t send my kid to Coolidge in the next five years, no matter what I hear about Wells.[/quote]
