[quote=Anonymous]OP here, the school work itself is not hard for my child. It really is the environment (tight space, dark building, minimal activities) and how essential being organized and maturely responsible is to maintaing good grades. Children learn differently, mine absolutely is a hands-on, visual learner. In the past, DC has done fine with a mixture of worksheets, book work, projects, presentations and field trips. DC has never been an all A student but A's and B's and an occasional C when new math concepts have been introduced. Since pre-K DC has loved Science. It is now the least favorite subject. This thread has been very helpful and talking it through with you all. I have not taken any offense to varying opinions because delivery and experiences will differ. Moving is not an option because we recently bought our home in DC and can't afford a mortgage and rent. Thinking long term, I couldn't imagine selling our home in DC because I do wish to leave it to our child one day. Maybe in a few years, by the time high school role around we will be in a better financial position to move to upper NW or the suburbs if that was our best option. We do enjoy the different types of diversity living in the city offers. But we will see. [/quote]
