[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unlike at a private school where kids are far flung, your kid not only knows the kids in her/his class/grade but knows their families. You know their families.  Many kids participate in sports together so you meet families on the weekends.  Many go to the same pool so you hang out with them in the summer.  Kids know each other from the bus stop, from playing with their classmate who lives around the corner afterschool.

This is a benefit to your child.  They see families socializing together. They gain familiarity with other adults.  Other adults know and care about your child.   Many families choose Jamestown for this very reason and have made family friends for life.  People will throw aspersions here because most people want this general situation of an excellent school/great community. [/quote]

This small community feel exists at the other North Arlington schools (can’t speak to South Arlington - probably there too) without the downsides of JES.[/quote]
