[quote=Anonymous]Yes. And No. our experience was that the curriculum was excellent. And uniform. The homework and grading platform cogent and useful. Though not without its bugs.

An hour of individual attention and training by a mid level or even junior teacher was worth much more than glancing attention from a seasoned veteran who might be frustrated with my kid. It’s a trade off.

Our experience at a few campuses is that many of the teachers are surprisingly devoted and excellent. No I don’t work for fusion. The issue for the teachers is that they don’t get paid much for lesson prep so the ones that have been there awhile and know the curriculum tend to be better.

I think the model is fantastic for certain kids. If they encouraged a bit more social activity did just a bit of group projects and had more aggressive homework cafe accountability in place it would be truly extraordinary.

In meantime OP work directly with teachers and front desk staff to hold DC accountable and do checkins throughout the day in homework cafe. They will help but you have to be explicit about what you ask for.
