[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will give you that the bus is a little like Lord of the Flies and that the facilities could be a lot nicer, but the teachers at Latin are wonderful, enthusiastic and inspiring.  They really want kids to love learning.  The teachers are young (one of my favorite fifth grade teachers from last year left on a Fulbright  scholarship -- she inspired the kids to organize events to help people around the world such as the earthquake victims in Haiti -- wish she would still be there for my younger kids), but I see that as a positive.  In the six years we were at a well regarded DCPS, we had one teacher who was truly excellent.  In fact, I walked away from back to school night wishing I could go back to school (and this IS middle school).   In this era of test and drill, it is truly amazing to find a school where education and learning do not come at the expense of The Test.

I went to the top private in Orlando in middle school and the bus was VERY Lord of the Flies - I think most of that is just the age of the kids.[/quote]
