[quote=Anonymous]Science Focus is a very nice school with strong teachers and active parents. I think the "Science" aspects are cosmetic at best since (1) great majority of time is still spent preparing kids for standard SOL subject matter , and (2) kids have a normal science and math knowledge/background. For example, if your child is learning addition, they might get a problem about adding atom, without any discussion of the atoms/bonds (e.g., 3 carbons atom plus 7 carbon atoms is 10 carbon atoms).
