[quote=Anonymous]This is the OP. Thank you for sharing your experiences, please keep them coming - I'm eager to hear more, even if you'd rather post here than email me. (Email is great though, ark1818@gmail.com). Interested in both positive and negative impressions of Cap Hill Montessori and TR..I'd only heard positive things about both, so I'm eager to hear why some of you wouldn't recommend them. I obviously won't make a decision just based on these forums, but I like having a lot of information when I make decisions, so this can only help. And I'm very interested in talking to Thomson parents, I got a good vibe at Ed Feast and their data looks good to me, given that they have a challenging population. (Half the school is ELLs but their growth scores are good, especially in math, which is an indication that the school is doing something right.) I don't know any parents there though and they don't have a PTA. Yes to the posters who picked up on this: I am most interested in a school that offers as good a longterm plan as possible, though those of you who pointed out things change over the years are absolutely correct. And proximity to home is important to me. My husband and I both work full-time and I work from home. Unfortunately, some of the schools folks mentioned (like Capitol City) are just too far to be realistic options right now. Others that you all recommended (like Seaton) look great, but my impression is that it's virtually impossible to match there if you aren't inbound. Thanks again, and please, continue sharing on all three schools and any others that you think I should have on my radar.[/quote]
