[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did you visit Stuart Hobson? What were your thoughts there? [/quote] I'm the PP PP quotes. We did visit yes, several times in fact. It's a hard one to crack because it's a lot about "things to be": The building WILL be renovated. The school WILL have SEM. There WILL (or more like may) be a revitalization of the museum program as integral part of the MS experience. That said, we're seriously considering it. Their track-record of serving advanced learners is established. I'm really impressed with the principal there. The teachers are experienced. And it's in the neighborhood, which works well for our family.[/quote] I think there are somethings already happening at SH. It is not all promise and the stuff that is coming has been well planned so I think it will happen. The extended day works well at SH. This year is the first year they tried it. By adding a ninth period it allows students who need additional help plenty of classroom time without losing all the specials like music, band and PE. Next year (sorry another "thing to be be") they will add an enrichment component to the extended day. As a pp said they will also add the honors program. They are already offering geometry to the some eighth graders. They have done this for a while which is why the SH kids do well with SWW admissions. [/quote]
