[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know anything about pre-pandemic Deal, but we have been really disappointed in the school (current 7th grader). My sense is that students who are on grade level, don't need specialized support, and are generally well behaved are going to be fine. If your kid needs any special services, I would look at other options. We bought in to the Deal reputation, but have been really unimpressed...if this is really "the top DC MS" we have a lot more work to do as a City.  [/quote]

I have one kid ahead of grade level, and one behind, both at Deal this year. If advanced math counts as “specialized support,” both need, and are receiving, specialized support. One is pretty rigid, the other goes with the flow. Both are having great years. Which is not to cast doubt on the PP’s personal experience. Sometimes Deal seems to be like 15 separate small schools. Experiences can be very different.

[b]What my kids do have in common is that both are generally well behaved, and both came from a feeder with a large circle of friends. I think those things help.[/b][/quote]

I’m a PP whose kids both had good experiences at Deal, and I agree with this point.[/quote]
