[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]If you are aiming for HS at a Big-3, with all honestly, you should apply to them when your kids are in the LS.[/b] The competition to get into these schools in 9th is keen, and much more difficult than when your kids are in the LS. And for all the benefits of a focused k-8 education, there are also benefits for the k-12 model. Neither one is so much better than the other that it's a clear choice one way. Also, if you find that your kid or family isn't a good fit for the K-12, you can always apply out.[/quote]

Not true for all. We hoped our kids would end up at one of a couple of the "Big 3s" after Norwood, and they did. And we are very happy about that outcome. [b]But the LS and MS at the Big 3 they are attending would have been terrible for at least one of them, [/b]and it is doubtful they would have stayed at that Big 3 for high school had they started there in lower school. Post-Norwood they have thrived at that Big 3 for high school.[/quote]

And you know this because???[/quote]

Ummm....because I know my kid??? What a rude question.[/quote]
