[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again.  Thank you for all the perspective.  Some random replies...

I hear you about recess not mattering in the upper grades, but honestly shouldn't the kids be active even when they're a bit older?  I remember getting a lot of outdoor time when I was in ES.  [b]They're only little for so long; it kinda breaks my heart that they spend so much time inside from such a young age.  [/b]

As for Murch, is there even a chance of a K spot there?  How would I figure that out?

I'm so disappointed to hear the negative reviews of CMI.  It seemed like such a great campus and I loved the tour.

I know LAMB isn't a community school per se.  But, it's walking distance from our house and that bumps it way up on our list.[/quote]

Maybe you're looking for a Waldorf school. This is a city, even outdoors isn't exactly playing in the woods (except at CMI...). I personally don't think I had more than one recess growing up either, although we may have gone outside during part of lunch period, hard to recall. Do remember PE - some schools do a lot more PE than others. Something to ask them. PE may take place indoors but keeps them active. Also, don't forget aftercare - my kids go outside right after school during aftercare too.[/quote]
