[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Last poster—should correct that I’m worried about my sensitive and NOT academically strong kid going to GW.[/quote] If you plan to send them anyway, I have two suggestions: 1) If they play an instrument, band or orchestra is a good way to connect with other sensitive or nerdier kids. It has helped my son socially. 2) I would not select all honors classes if your child is not academically strong. Some of them are not much work, but some of them have a very heavy workload. I would target classes that your child is more interested in for honors. I regret having chosen honors Language Arts for my son. He is not interested, and it is a giant time suck in terms of constant assignments. [/quote] Thanks! Regarding #1 yes we have really pushed band and that’s currently their plan. Regarding 2 we are likely not doing any honors because we are going to try the dual language. Fingers crossed it isn’t a disaster![/quote]
