[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just curious, when you say strict academics and discipline, what do you mean?  Is there another school that you view this proscpective school as comparable to?  What do you plan to do about phys ed vs. recess (which you have already explained would be at a playground)?
I think you need to get parents in the math/science fields involved if the school is going to be a coop.[/quote]

OP again.  We are not modeling it after any particular school at the moment although we are looking for school examples.    By strict academics and discipline i mean something along the lines of this:  I think there is a lot of wasted time in public schools.  There are always "trouble" kids that take away from the overall learning environment.  In most private schools this is not tolerated and there are consequences when a child acts out.  And most parents of private school students back this type of discipline whereas in many public schools ( in this area) the parents are not involved.

I am not concerned about phys. ed. right now... the kids will be five when starting the school.  There phys ed. is play time and games and running around.

Many things will evolve if/when the school grows.  [/quote]
