[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course, you can make life-long friends in every school. Having said that, Sheridan is an amazing school and 8th grade there is something incredibly special. You have to experience it to understand what it means to graduate from Sheridan. It is the year that your graduating child and the family will always remember (while 8th grade in most public schools and even in K-12 privates is just a year to make it through to get to HS).[/quote] The head of school reads out a three-to-five minute speech on each child, identifying their strengths, personality traits and contributions to the school. A spotlight that distilled their time at Sheridan was shined on every kid. Not sure any other school does that. It's truly special.[/quote] They also get to paint a brick on the wall with their name and things that were important to them. It's very cool to see the legacy of previous students and to see sames from way back as well as the most recent cohort of graduates. In my opinion, the experiences eclipses that of going to a k-12 throughout, especially because you can always swing back to those same k-12s for high school. [/quote]
