[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a PK-12 lifer from a Big 3, who is a parent of a rising K and we didn't pick a PK/K-12 when we were picking last year. My PK-12 ended up not being a great fit for me in high school but it was a "good enough" fit and it would have been hard to leave at the end of 8th. The school was not supportive of kids like me that were doing well academically leaving even if the kid felt like it wasn't a good fit. I could hack it academically but only with extreme effort on my part that made me fairly miserable but I got good grades. I didn't want that to happen to my kid so we picked a PK-8 and we can reassess at that point. [/quote] Were you at a PK-12 that was known for strong academics? We just chose a Pk-12 for our rising K for a few reasons, but one was that we though they would have more flexibility for high school, whether to leave or stay. The school we chose is good, but definitely not a Big 3 so I'm hoping we don't have a similar experience. [/quote]
