[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really wanted to give my IB middle school a chance, but I toured it and found:
1. The classes weren't taught at grade level. Sixth grade math was fourth grade math.
2. The environment was prison-like. There was just no life to the school. Kids weren't allowed to visit their lockers during the day. Boys and girls had separate lunches. I can't imagine any kid enjoying school.

I realize that safety is a concern for many, and this school has a pretty good reputation for safety inside the building. I guess that's the tradeoff.

Hardy?

I want to see evidence that ms grades are ready for and can success in advanced classes in hs. That is what I told the hardy principal and unfortunately the school is not there.[/quote]

None of the above applies to hardy. Kids can access lockers in case of need. Kids of the same class age have lunch together (regardless of sex!).

This is what you told the hardy Principal (i.e. this is what you think). You did not tell us what she said. [/quote]

I asked once in person and once by email. She avoided answering the question in person and didn't respond when I asked again by email.[/quote]
