[quote=Anonymous]I think Burgundy may not be a great fit if you consider yourself very traditional. We are very happy with it, but we have a fairly relaxed attitude towards school... We are a-okay with things like kids calling teachers by the first names and with a certain amount of controlled chaos. I totally get, though, that Burgundy's idiosyncrasies are not for everyone. But that said, it is all relative. I don't think Burgundy is perfect, at all. There are things that bother me and worry me. But when I consider the other options, from public to other privates, I don't see anything that is "perfect." Each school involves certain trade-offs. Price, convenience, academic quality, culture, teacher dedication and enthusiasm, you name it-- you are unlikely to find absolutely everything you want in a single school. For us, Burgundy offered the best mix, or the least-bad set off trade offs, and out kids have been happy and successful there.[/quote]
