[quote=Anonymous]Agree that k-8 choice has minimal impact on where your child ends up for HS and that an 8th grader might choose a different school than what you might choose for them if applying for earlier grade. Kids in 8th grade tend to have strong opinions that don’t always line up with parent opinions! The strategy of moving kids from a k-8 to a school where you want them for high school is something a lot of people do to help with admissions odds. This is fine IF you are confident about HS fit for your kid (or, I guess, if you think they have very low chances of getting in later). That said, I can’t think of a school where middle grades shine in the way they do at a k-8 and MS At WES was/is a great experience for our DCs. And yes, kids from their classes ended up/will end up scattered around DMV high schools public and private. [/quote]
