[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do kids really sit on the floor to eat??!?

Where are the cafeteria tables? [/quote]

The cafeteria might have space for like 200 kids, if that. What is a school of 2000 going to do, have 10 lunches? Of course kids eat elsewhere. I ate sitting on the floor in the hallway with my friends at RMHS 20 years ago, with one open lunch for everyone, and we thought it was absolutely fine. [/quote]

Eww that is nasty af

I guess large overcrowding schools are no big deal here. We had grade level lunches and there were tables for everyone. Definitely looking into private schools for middle and high school. [/quote]

That’s rich.  Good luck with that.  But, if you want the slow math track and dumb down your kids, private is the way to go.  [/quote]

What makes you believe private schools have slow math tracks?[/quote]

None I found would allow algebra in 6th.  Looked at multiple and none were comparable with math and electives.  [/quote]

Doesn't matter. Almost everyone who takes public school Algebra in 6th and continues on that track takes a real outside math class or independent study outside of school anyway. Still "private", but a la carte. Students who are on that track so not *learn* early HS math from a standard curriculum class environment, because they are too smart for it.

Private schools with extra advanced students have the ability to support them 1:1 on their advanced study. [/quote]
