[quote=Anonymous]In response to the OP---we have a child at SWS, and another entering next year. I went to catholic schools and sat in rows and did worksheets, and I am not creative or artsy. So sometimes, I have to take a deep breath when I hear my child decribe some activities, or when I hear the Reggio approach being described, or see it in practice, because it is much more warm and fuzzy than who I am. That said, my child is happy thriving, and is way more creative than I will ever be. And I do believe that this learning approach will translate into great problems solving skills, as well as an ablility to work well with others and a good deal of empathy. If you really are focused on your child being academically ahead in the traditional ways that being ahead is measured by DCPS, this school may not be for you. If you can handle more than a little bit of touchy-feely and think about the long game, it is a wonderful place.[/quote]
