[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s why we stopped APS after middle school and put our kids in private. Hard core from day 1. [/quote] +1. My kids are at a Catholic prep school and what I love is that their midterms and finals are run (all 4 years) like college. The first midterms in 9th are a wake-up intro. Having them weighted at 20% or more and the review involved. Missing assignments are 0–unless some very extenuating circumstances. The teachers are very helpful and taught my kids to take advantage of office hours and get on top of things early if they are lost, don’t understand something or get a low grade. It has made them proactive and organized.[/quote]
