[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks so much everyone! My daughter loves theater, art, and music, and as far as I can te these are reasonably strong at Hardy? We were wondering if a private school would be better with the transition, but it’s great to hear these positive comments on Hardy. I’ll see if we can go to a tour in January.

And happy to provide thoughts on Boston! We’re actually in Cambridge, so my knowledge of public schools here is for this district, not Boston itself.[/quote]

Thank you, OP!

I would really appreciate hearing about Boston as well as the Cambridge district. I was just reading about Rindge… I truly don’t know anything about the area or where to start.[/quote]

Cambridge Rindge and Latin is an excellent high school! A lot of wealthier parents send their kids to private middle schools and then to Rindge. It has a big range since the city has just the one HS but the academic and extracurricular opportunities are by all accounts awesome. Public middle schools in Cambridge are very mixed but improving. Ours (CSUS) has a great community and some stars among the teachers, but overall it hasn’t been good academically for our daughter. Somerville public schools are also improving but behind Cambridge. Many parents move out to Arlington for the public schools there. Or there are the super schools in Lexington but apparently there are high rates of anxiety among HS students there since they’re pushed so hard. Plus it’s not diverse at all.  [/quote]
