[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting. You sound like a parent who never got off the BASIS wait list for a math oriented student. Thanks for all the detail.

How do you cope with the lack of challenge and homework and the fact that the kid hates DCI (if I got that right). You supplement in core subjects? Language?

So you don't plan to stay for high school?  You're shooting for...Walls? Privates? Planning to move from DC?  We're in a DCI feeder, wondering if we should jump to BASIS or one of the Latins if we have the chance this year.

Yup, I am that parent. :) Cope: Hope for the best. I'm not certain my kid wouldn't have hated any other middle school, because middle school. Though she may have been stressed out by work instead of being bored. We supplement in foreign language and spend a lot of time on her sport. Would prefer not to stay for high school, but not sure we'll have other options. Still considering moving or private (though unlikely). Looking into all the application high schools of course, but they are mostly all humanities oriented. [/quote]

I appreciate your perspective.  I am a PP with a 9th grader.  She and her friends are all having a great year and I know that she would say HS is better than MS.  That seems to be an almost universal view.  As you say, MS is just a pain.  [/quote]
