[quote=Anonymous]What????

I'm a Raymond parent.  I'm pale white, very skinny, with white blond hair so I still out like a sore thumb and I'm in the principal's office a LOT so if you go to that school, you know me and come up and say hi!

My experience at Raymond has been wonderful!  We will not stay for middle school because I'm not thrilled about academics but:

1.  School is very responsive (I have mentioned that I would pull out my kids otherwise but I don't think that's the issue).  I didn't like the amount of homework?, they accommodated me.  I didn't like the extended year (we do camp), they accommodated me.  My daughter needed extra tutoring?, they gave it to her for free one-on-one.

2.  They do a LOT of special programs.  They did an intensive spelling bee training.  Free.  Ballet.  Free.  Spanish.  Free.  At other schools, you pay.  Also, lunch, breakfast, before and aftercare are FREE.

3.  The teachers, principal, and even security have REAL experience.  They have been there for a long time and are insanely good at their job.  If you got a bad teacher, see number 1.

I cannot recommend this school enough.  Just get out (Latin, Basis) at 5th grade when it seems like the kids become trouble and academics are a real issue.
