[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone come back to Julius West after HGC? How was the transition and challenge? I just don't know if we can handle the commute to MS magnet.[/quote] My DC is going to JW for the same reason -- commute. Did you go to the MCCPTA "Meeting the Needs of the Highly Able Student" and the JW meeting they had for parents of kids coming in from Barnsely? I know a lot of it is spin, but some of what I heard seemed like DC would be ok. JW only has advanced English and science for 6th, and they are supposed to differentiate within the class. The teachers talked a bit about how they differentiate. I'm also hoping that the MYP will make it a bit more interesting for DC. Maybe it's all just lip service, but I know a few current 6th graders from Barnsely, and they said it was fine. I think it just depends on the kid. Like I told DC, it's what you make of it.[/quote]
