[quote=Anonymous]I don't discount posts on either extreme. I think they all have their merits. If some love the school I make note of why. People may disagree (like the teachers or dislike them, but maybe different teachers, so English vs. math for instance, and that gives me info). The people who love the school may love the facilities, and the people who hate it might have issues with the admin, rules, or specific areas of the curriculum. I learn things I can ask questions about. Also, things that some bother some people don't bother others. For instance, if your DC plays a lot of sports, it will bug you if the school doesn't have a strong sports program. My DC is tiny and would rather read a book. He has two left feet. I want him in PE, but he is never making varsity anything, so lax means nothing to us. I def want a nurse at the school though. That's a dealbreaker. I don't want DC delivering a message to the office and walking past a child vomiting, who is waiting for someone to pick him up. GreatSchools is good for that. [/quote]
