[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I toured Gilman years ago and talked to a few teachers and admin folks and was completely turned off by the fact that they used my son's April birthday solely as a reason for recommending pre-first. I asked about pre-first since I didn't know much about it and the first question they asked me was, "When is his birthday?" I told them and they said he would most likely go to pre-first. At that point (fall prior to kindergarten), he was already reading on a beginning second grade level. It seemed like when the boy's birthday was mattered most which is ridiculous.[/quote] Then private school in Baltimore probably isn't for you. It isn't just a Gilman thing here.[/quote]
