No it’s not big.  The average is a little over 200 kids to a grade.  It’s a medium size school.  I graduated high school with about 350 kids.

Yes, it’s more competitive to get into some of the popular sports but at least they have a ton of sports options which Cooper basically doesn’t and they have fields.  Plus they play against other schools in conferences since they can field teams and are competitive. [/quote]

270-280 for this years 6th grade.

The schools are different. Much as people here want to tell you one is better than the other, the truth is just that they have different pros and cons. We didn't choose DCI and were very bummed to give up the language and have had to work hard to keep that up at home. We were not bummed to give up what felt like a choatic atmosphere. Friends of our kid thrived at DCI. Those were kids that are fine with some disorder and are good at charting themselves a path and are generally self directed. Other friends felt lost and got behind fast. Another example, our kid's sport is out of school and will stay out of school. That would be the same for DCI or Latin, so we didn't worry about fields. There is a definitely a big tech difference too. Some kids love being on a laptop all day and it's not good for others.

So choose for you kid and not for what others tell you is better or worse. [/quote]
