[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh, and Sheridan is a small school but the classes are not small because they have one class per grade.[/quote] NP here - You may understand the numbers of kids in a class at Sheridan, but you don't understand how the school is run nor do you understand the instructional model. As a different Sheridan parent, Ive come to know and appreciate how things are run there. It is an extraordinarily nurturing place. They do not oversubscribe. There are very strict caps imposed by the district They do not exceed those numbers A class of 30 would be an anomoly. Two full time teachers for 24 students. Taught in half classes. There is no way my son could be in a class with 23 other kids and thrive. Yet he has. For the past 7 years. Don't dismiss Sheridan unless you understand it. [/quote]
