[quote=Anonymous]For each school, I would check whether 6th grade is an entry year. If it is not, I would avoid the school. DC started a school in 6th and it was not an entry year and it was not a good experience -- no support from the school for new students because it was not an entry year. I also would avoid K-8 schools. The kids there have basically been together since K and may not be very welcoming to a newcomer. The atmosphere can be very insular, despite what the admissions office says.[/quote]
