From what I gather, the MS was created for and only for kids who could not function at a normal school and therefore were going to be 'sent to the wolves' (quote) if the MS wasn't created, and couldn't afford a private option.  It appears that way from the kids who stayed, the kids who plan to stay, and the lack of academic challenge in the MS (twice a week language, second language was now dropped, no science, etc), and afterschool care was dropped to $75/month (but no discounts for a day option).  There's still no homework (or barely any) even in the upper grades.  [b]It's like it was created with a very specific mold in mind.[/b][/quote]

It's almost like that was their purpose.  Crazy how it's surprising that a charter school actually does that these days.  Good for CMI.[/quote]

Sure, I guess, if you don't care that your families peel off  and grades 5-8 are all new kids looking for a non-academic middle school.[/quote]

That's it.  The school had a great student-led, creative-focused ES (grades pre-5th) and a great special needs non-academic MS (6th).  It's not the same school.[/quote]
