[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have 2 kids at CMI.  I know 2 1st grade families in 1st are moving away (1 out of the country) and a 3rd is house hunting.  I know a 3rd grade family bought a house in Maryland.

I am laughing at the comments that CMI doesn't place a priority on academics.  That's so not true.  There are so many type A parents at the school (including me) who are obsessed with this issue.  We would not be here if the academics were not up to par.

Many of us feel incredibly lucky to be at this school.  OP if you decide to come, welcome and I look forward to meeting you!

Ps I take leave from my job to attend school performances, or make the time up later, like most parents in the US.  I am extremely fortunate that I can do so, but PP your snarky comment about parents making time for their kids was unnecessary.[/quote]

Such the typical rich CMI parent. No, most parents in the US can't take leave from their jobs to attend performances or make up the time later. Nice bubble you live in.  [/quote]

NP. CMI parent here. I do not consider ourselves rich by all means (middle class, maybe) but I am also lucky to work for a family-friendly company and are able to take off work to attend my kids' performances and make up time later. My husband and I take turns...we make it work. We value our jobs but more importantly, our kids are our priority. We make sure that one of us is there for school performances, etc. I understand not everybody have that work arrangement. [/quote]
