[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1.  Lower school entry way is too small for kids and parents milling around.
2.  The school thinks they are old enough to walk in on their own and experience seems to support that.  They seem happy with their growing independence.
3.  It sounds harsher than it is--Mr. Herman greets everyone outside as they enter, so it is a friendly start to the day for the boys.  [/quote]

1 may be true, but the boys are always milling around (and running, and yelling, and throwing, and jumping, and wrestling, etc., etc.) anyway.

2 is absolutely true.  After a while, if you don't speed away after drop off, you'll get a frown from your DS.

3 is one of the reasons (at least I say to myself) that paying 30K for what could be free is "worth it."  Mr. Herman, greeting your DS at tne entry way -- by name -- with a handshake and a bon mot is inspiring.[/quote]

New to school.  3 is so spot on.  And DS has such a vanilla name and vanilla look.  Impressed that Mr. Herman nailed it the very first day.[/quote]

Has it been a few years, PP ? Tuition is 38K.[/quote]
