[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our son is new to the school (middle school). Midterms are coming up. Has anyone looked at how much is expected to be covered? The scope and breadth are astounding. It's intimidating. Are there any other parents out there stressing out over this entire exercise? My son seems okay, but I am a wreck. [/quote] How about trying to come in and talk to the Academic Dean of the Lower School, Mrs. D[ ]? She's honest, straight-talking, and a pro and could probably give you a good sense of the realities of the experience and how kids handle it, what you as a parent might be able to do. Also, is your son using the STArtSmart resource? Maybe encouraging him to take advantage of STArtSmart in helping him organize his studying? Good luck![/quote]
