[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would not do this if you have a happy, successful kid and you think their friend group is a positive influence. What middle school pyramid are you in? If you think writing in general is weak (and it’s something I think could be better in FCPS) enroll in an AOPS enrichment course, or do a Ffx collegiate or writings writing class in the summer, etc…that could be your “deal” with the kid, stay in public with some language arts enrichment each year. There are s lot of great programs available to work on writing, public speaking, etc… Middle school changes a lot and then HS even more with honors and especially AP classes. My student in mostly APs jr year was definitely challenged. [/quote] We went this route and if I had the money which this person does, I would have done private but would have found a friend for my child to attend and carpool with. Junior year is too late, and summer is best for other things than Fairfax Collegiate.[/quote]
