[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I personally think the size of DCI is perfect and in the sweet spot.  It’s actually a medium size school - not too large and not too small.   Go out to the burbs and you will see class years with 300 plus kids and high schools with 1200-2000 kids alone.  Now that is large.

Way too small like Copper and very limited in all offerrings and the same kids can be stifling.  Way too big and your kid gets lost in the crowd.  DCI is medium size and diverse with enough kids for your kid to find their niche of friends with lots of offerings like the bigger schools.[/quote]

It's Cooper, not Copper. DCI does have 300-person grade cohorts, doesn't it? Maybe that's changed. You are right that if a kid wants a larger school, DCI is the way to go. Good luck getting into the more popular activities, though.[/quote]

No it’s not big.  The average is a little over 200 kids to a grade.  It’s a medium size school.  I graduated high school with about 350 kids.

Yes, it’s more competitive to get into some of the popular sports but at least they have a ton of sports options which Cooper basically doesn’t and they have fields.  Plus they play against other schools in conferences since they can field teams and are competitive. [/quote]
