[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are zoned for Wootton and have had DD in private since elementary school. Yes class size and general chaos was top reason. And overall lack of academic rigor. [/quote] I can’t relate to this at all. We are zoned to Wootton and I send my kid to private because Wootton is a pressure cooker and I don’t feel like my kid would do well there. Sent older siblings to Wootton and junior year was just a level of stress I was not comfortable with. [/quote] This. It's definitely a school that caters to very advanced, competitive kids. I have one kid that is built for that and one who is not. I keep them both at Wootton but encouraged my younger one (who is not as competitive) to take classes he knew he could pass with a reasonable effort and the other one just naturally challenged himself and did very well. The older one is now at an ivy and the younger one is at University of Maryland so both did well in our books.[/quote]
