[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are you framing this in terms of elementary schools when both are K-12? Think longer term. They lead to two pretty different HS experiences. I agree with others that LS/MS is probably a wash. [/quote] Kids can, and probably should, switch school for high school. Does any kid want to be a "Lifer"? [/quote] Yes, sure, kids want to stay with their friends. DCUM is the only place I've seen the term "lifer" and for some reason it's used as a derogatory term. It seems odd and mean to pick on kids who stay at a school they like that works for them. Some kids switch, sure, but there is no reason that is better or worse than not switching. Adults shouldn't throw around nasty labels for kids, in my opinion. [/quote] Some friends of mine are proud lifers. They say it with pride. Big3 school.[/quote]
