[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Only as an adult do I appreciate my hometown school district having separate buildings for, respectively, K-4, 5-6, 7-8, and 9-12. [/quote] That is the same breakdown as my kids current school district. I feel like it help reduces the middle school age drama. My one little gripe is just the zoning. The majority of the kids in our ES go to one intermediate school for 5-6 while my son went to a different one. So he barely knew anybody at the start of 5th grade - maybe there were max 10 kids from his ES (kids in our subdivision and next) out of 300+ in his grade. He made good friends with new group of kids, but now most kids will now go to a different MS for 7-8. He will see some of them back in HS in 2 years, but half will feed to a different HS, so he won't see them anymore. Him and that 9 kids from ES will now go to a different MS where he will be back together with the kids from his original ES. [/quote]
