[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Swanson... but all APS schools are full to bursting. Except HB.[/quote] But what are the class sizes like at Swanson? [/quote] Look at my post at 23:06. I am describing Swanson where my DD is a 7th grader. Yes, the teachers are generally handling the overcrowding the best they can but do you want your child in that far from ideal atmosphere at the same time other students have HB????[/quote] I have a 7th grader at Swanson. He LOVES it there. I think the teams approach is a good one in that it keeps the kids rotating in their core classes in smaller groups. He gets to meet up with his friends at lunch. He doesn't complain or feel that the school is overcrowded. I get the feeling it is the PARENTS who are freaking out about 'oh the overcrowding' whereas the kids are doing just fine. [/quote] I have had 2 kids at Swanson; DC2 is there now. Agree that this is a problem much more for parents than for students. But it's also true that there is a limit to how many kids they can squeeze in there.[/quote]
