[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am also interested in more recent feedback. I hear there are some issues with behavior. We are also at a DCI feeder so trying to decide between the two. [/quote]

We chose to stay at our dci feeder and continue to dci. I would have loved to do a year at Latin and continue to dci for 6th grade, but the way the lottery works prevents that. We have older children at DCI so we’re familiar with the benefits and drawbacks. We have many close friends at Latin who are happy.

Main considerations for dci versus Latin is how invested your child is at languages. My kid speaks excellent spanish (we are native speakers) so that was important to us. Anecdotally the children who struggled the most with languages were the happiest kids from our school to attend Latin. Secondly the math curriculum and STEM curriculum generally are weak compared to DCI. Having both weak stem and weak foreign language programs were the dealbreaker for us. Had my kid struggled with either we would been happy to move for the smaller class sizes and bus transportation alone. [/quote]
