[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again. Since this is a pretty big decision for us, so I would to share a little more. We are in haycock -Longfellow-McLean pyramid. And everyone I encountered said g positive things about our private school. However liked I shared earlier, on paper, my DD seems a very typical STEM kid, even for reading, she likes fast paced, complex logic, rules-based books. Her recent fav books are Percy Jackson, explorer academy, Benedict society, etc. she doesn’t like books which require deep emotional inference, character driven, heavy metaphors, or a lot of moral ambiguity. She likes challenges, has a lot of friends at school, I just think maybe a different school might suit her better for the future 8-10years. If any private school in this area a stronger candidate than AAP for her, we are totally open too, please let us know:) For her, challenging math, hands-on /project-based curriculum, strong peers are the most important factors. Thank you again! [/quote] Longfellow has STEM opportunities and resources unmatched by any private. It has been a longstanding winner of middle school division of Science Olympiad for the last twenty years across all disciplines. Plenty of strong peers and intense competition. [/quote] And the distilled essence of the most tigerish parents in all of Virginia. You need to be in tune with that mentality. [/quote]
