[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes. Things settled down. They brought in several new teachers and staff, as well as a new MS head and a new learning support specialist. I was very nervous at the beginning of the year, and I do think the first month of school was a little bumpy, but now that everyone has settled in things seem to be fine. I don't know the new MS head well but the new teachers all seem great, and I have been impressed by the new learning specialist, too.

I think MS has gotten more "academic" in the last 5 years or so: more emphasis on grades, more challenging assignments, more tests, more homework and so on. I am not entirely crazy about this, but many families like it.

Overall, Burgundy is still Burgundy: pleasantly idiosyncratic on a good day; annoying disorganized on a bad day, but basically very friendly and nurturing.[/quote]

Thanks for the update. We are in the LS right now and don't know any families with kids in MS.

What exactly does the learning specialist do? Does she meet with all kids?[/quote]
