[quote=Anonymous]DE is a great school if your kid is curious and committed. Because of its unique arrangement, many teachers are non-union and get paid less, so they are there out of passion for the school and that passion comes out in the teaching I have found. Not always the best at communication to parents, but in the last couple of years parents have been much more involved, which is great for accountability. As a PP suggested, the choice needs to be very focused on your child's passion for the art they choose. It is a long day of school and much more rigorous than many kids imagine. A good number of kids but wind up eventually in law school and use the public speaking training as a platform. [/quote]
