[quote=Anonymous]My kids started MS as 6th graders and it has been great for them. They had outgrown the baby-ish nature of ES. Being able to change classes and not be stuck with the same small group of kids has been great. There was some 5th grade drama and both girls think that not being with the same kids all day, every day is a good thing and reduces some of that drama. PPs keep saying that this makes kids grow up faster, but my kids had outgrown ES by the time they were done. One of my kids also has 7th and 8th grade friends through her club sport, so there was not this notion of scary 7th and 8th graders. I think 5th is the perfect cut-off for ES.[/quote]
