[quote=Anonymous]Agree almost entirely. However, I would point out that Adams middle school’s DC CAC scores are higher than Deals. So I do not agree that the middle school is abysmal or that Adams lacks academic rigor. I think it is just that the program is simply too small to differentiate to the extent that parents would like (ie: there are not enough teachers or students to offer the most advanced classes as Deal, Basis and the Privates do). I think parents (and their kids) have to balance what is most important to them and what best meets the needs of the individual child. I would choose the Spanish over the more advance math. I can supplement math at home, and I feel Spanish is a skill my child will not get elsewhere that will prepare him for his life in a very important way. For me - it's the total chaos and total lack of leadership that has me considering other options. Which is sad - that's the easiest thing to fix.[/quote]
