[quote=Anonymous]Just hopping on to say that the not all families are having difficulties with MV. We've been here three years, two kids in the school--the younger is getting lots of support in getting used to school, beginning writing, etc. The older is reading above grade level, getting some (but not extensive) support in being a highish-flyer in math, and has what native speakers (unafflilated with MV) to be an expressive vocabulary for a 7-yr-old. This is not to say that our kids are special & amazing--they seem about average and they're doing decently well. We've found the teachers and support staff to be responsive to questions of discipline and classroom culture (younger kid likes to push boundaries, the older kid has been in some not-so-helpful friendships and needed redirection. They've both gotten these needs met.) Which is to say it must be more of a crap-shoot. However, if your kid is on an IEP, ask A LOT of questions and connect specifically to current parents. We don't have direct experience, but I have heard a lot of stories. MV is not a perfect school, but it's one that's been good for our family. I don't know if it will be good for yours. And good luck with your decision.[/quote]
