[quote=Anonymous]We chose a k-8 for reasons posted earlier. More focus on younger years and ability to boost self esteem etc. we also chose the k-8 Because the middle schoolers would be free of influence of older teenagers in high school. Some parents were worried and applied out early to avoid the 9th grade crush and not all those kids are thriving the same way our kids are. Application process has been stressful (shadows, essays, SSAT prep and test) but the school has done an amazing job preparing students and holding parents hands in terms of keeping them informed and doing outreach. We shall see what March holds for the majority of kids applying for private in 9th grade. I don’t regret our decision on K-8 and our youngest will finish our at the school too in 3 more years.
