[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the pp. In never said "middle school stinks and will never get better". I said that the Ward 6 middle school plan stinks and isn't really an effective vehicle to better middle schools. Totally different.[/quote] Sorry, I assumed you were also "What age? We got out (gladly) becaues it leads to no where. Most parents with kids in older classes do the lottery each year in the hopes of making the jump out -- though they won't tell you that at a Maury event." If you're jumping ship from an elementary school you like at kindergarten simply because middle-school may not be ready, I think that's irrational. Not that you disagree with the plan, etc...[/quote] Nope, I was the one you quoted there. I had one jump out this year, 4th grade, after school began and hope to have another one out next year via lottery again. I think Maury is fine for the younger ages. We are 1.5 years away from middle school. I don't think either SH or EH will be acceptable to us by that time. Right now we are in a Hardy feeder. Hedging our bets there. It actually may be an option for us where as SH and EH just aren't. I never said that children shouldn't enroll but that you should go in with your eyes wide open. If you want to stick with Maury (and we did) then just realize that you may want to play the lottery also to see what happens. There are definitely options out there so keep them open. [/quote]
