[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The most absurd are the parents who swear by the structure of ATS, then send their kids to HB. [/quote] How is this absurd? An elementary schooler’s needs are different than a middle schooler’s needs. After 5 years of structure some kids mature to the point they can handle a school like HB. Many students don’t apply to HB though. [/quote] Don't bother. There is either one persistent poster or a handful who pop up on these threads like clockwork to complain about ATS kids who then go on to H-B. They either can't understand or choose not to understand that kids have different needs at different ages. Or that kids who learn structured study skills early on at a place like ATS might crave the freedom of H-B and do well there because they can self-regulate. In any event, it's not worth trying to defend it to them. They're just upset that the choice schools exist, it seems. [/quote]
