[quote=Anonymous]Middle school is horrible. Elementary school was full of reading, project, writing assignments, math homework....the whole deal. Very little of this in middle except in a couple of classes (one year of global humanities had some promising projects and books, etc). In high school it gets better if kids are going for the more challenging classes, AP, IB, etc. My advice for parents: make sure your middle schooler has something else that will push them. My kids each have/had a sport and a side activity in middle that took up time, required discipline and focus and time management, goal setting, practice, etc. and that taught them a lot of useful skills.
