[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would also seriously consider Payne to Eliot-Hine. It is a realistic lottery option which does not require moving that would for you be an easy commute. Your child could even walk home when needed from middle school.[/quote] I wouldn't. Eliot-Hine promises families of high-performing students plenty of appropriate challenge but doesn't deliver. The reality is that you wind up half homeschooling your kid for MS if your kid is advanced, particularly for humanities subjects. Realistic lottery options and easy commutes are great, but EH isn't, particularly if your kid isn't a self-starter. We have close friends who are considering leaving EH afer 6th grade and 7th grade. Their high achieving students haven't been challenged at EH, other than for math. Same story with SH.[/quote] Leaving and going where?[/quote] Private or suburb. They're giving up on DCPS. [/quote]
