[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not DCPS, but Waterfront Academy in SW (near stadium) is opening a middle school portion next year. Grades 5-8, I believe. Sounds like a great option for a kid who needs more attention and a smaller environment. According to the principal, Montessori middle school is very project-based, lots of individual and group projects. I am very intrigued at this option for my own child. [/quote] I have no beef with waterfront academy. However the head of school was an educational aide 4 years ago in DCPS. Not sure if that's the kind of instructional leadership I'd trust my kid and 15k to.[/quote] You are crazy! If you check the website you'd she has years of teaching experience. She was most likely an aide while she was in college (clearly more than 4 years ago as well), which is pretty typical. Check your facts before you say something like that! http://www.waterfrontacademy.org/the-team.html[/quote]
