[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Respectfully disagree - - a board member pulled her kid out of 7th grade last year mid year! It's a mess there. [quote=Anonymous]While I agree that the lower school experience is excellent, we are even more enthused about the middle school. The curriculum continues to be interactive and project-based with an emphasis on critical thinking. The middle school students reflect a great deal about their roles as leaders and and as role models to the younger kids. This is exactly the middle school experience we wanted for our child. It's a small progressive school. If you are looking for a larger school or a more traditional curriculum, then you will likely find a better match elsewhere. There is a middle school open house each year, as most applicants are for the K entry year. Having a separate event is a nice opportunity to talk to current parents and students about the middle school experience and see if it is a good match for your child and family. [/quote][/quote] Keeping this intentionally vague so as not to 'out' a child, but …. your reasoning is incorrect. There was more going on there that had everything to do with an individual set of circumstances and nothing to do with project-based learning, differentiation, or the size of that grade, whatever.
