[quote=Anonymous]Not the poster you're responding to but perhaps the Webster's definition of" bait and switch" will be instructive here:

[i]The action of advertising goods which are an apparent bargain, with the intention of substituting inferior or more expensive goods.[/i]

This is what Latin admins do. They assure you that the program will offer formidable rigor for your advanced rising 5th grader up through the HS years. They declare that more robust MS and HS course offerings will be offered at Latin with each passing year.  But the promised challenge mostly fails to materialize.

If you're on the ball and have the means, you wind up paying to send your kid to summer and weekend programs to take better taught AP classes.  You add a few AP scores to the measly number your kid is permitted to accumulate at Latin.

If your kid sailed through a DCPS ES program, think twice about turning up your nose at BASIS, or Walls later on, along with failing to scrape together the dough for a private.[/quote]
