[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid did not go to Thoreau.  But she is now a senior at Madison.  The biggest thing I can say is the students from Thoreau are much better prepared for Madison band than from the other school.

Academically, I do not know.

It is middle school, though, and middle schoolers are jerks.[/quote]

They really are the worst. I can say that for the ones at all of the middle schools in the area including my own children. All they want to do is hang out at Waters and then they all cause trouble. It is all middle school BS.  This goes for Thoreau and Kilmer, boys and girls. They thrive on drama, group chats and whatever is happening in the town of Vienna when they ran into so and so yesterday.  [/quote]

My kids never went to Waters field and don't thrive on drama or chat groups about what is happening in the town of Vienna.  I will agree that not much good happens from tweens/young teens hanging out in groups without their parents at Waters Field.  I have heard a few stories of inappropriate behavior.  This has nothing to do with TMS, though.  It's a matter of kids having access to an open field and free time after school, and apparently, a way to get home.  My kids took the bus home everyday, so they weren't just hanging out in random places looking for trouble after school let out.[/quote]
