[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP,

Both my kids are in high school now, and they were both offered a spot at Barnsley.

One took it, and the other did not. There were things that were fantastic about Barnsley (peer group, fewer classroom distractions, interesting curriculum & projects, really great specials teachers).

There were also things that were fantastic about 4th & 5th grade at the neighborhood elementary (local playmates, better field trips, fantastic 5th grade project).

I wouldn't say that one was better than the other. There were differenet positives for both.

The Barnsley bus got to our local stop around 8:30 am and dropped off around 4:45 pm. Our kid really enjoyed the very social bus!

We left it up to the kids, and they were happy with their decision.

They've both done well in middle school and high school. Leave it up to your kid!

I think the ones for which a CES is a definite option are those who are struggling socially in ES and who might benefit from new classmates.[/quote]
