[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I did visit Seaton and I was impressed by the classroom dynamics, from the PK to the 5th grade math. 
EVERYONE was on task, no yelling, no running around. Nothing. The smallest kids were having fun and learning while the older ones were doing math (yeah, not so much) but everyone seemed ON. Sometimes you don't even see that in an office environment! 
The library was nice and everyone, from the volunteers to the art teacher was welcoming and eager to show their work and the kids work. Nothing seemed "staged" for the open house. So, that was my Seaton impression. [/quote]

PP (Seaton parent) here. I am glad to hear you were left with that impression. I assure you that was not staged. I see that every single day and that was one of the many reasons why we chose to send our child there. Our kid is happy and eager to go to school everyday. Seaton has a warm, community feel. Before school started, I did not know what to expect in a DCPS school and I was worried that the older kids will be unruly. I found out for myself (and was pleasantly surprised) to see how behaved and respectful they were. Sometimes it gets chaotic in there during drop off/pick up time (I guess like any other school) and I've had older kids hold the door for me while I struggle to get my kid out the door. [/quote]
