[quote=Anonymous]I toured Lab's 7/8th grade recently and didn't get a good vibe. It was clear that a tour was passing thru the halls and classrooms yet we witnessed the students' being really rude to the teachers and each other. It was surprising how much back talk was tolerated and no common courtesy. None of the obnoxious comments were addressed or inappropriate language corrected. The other parent that was with us just looked over and gave me "the look". Maybe this is what an ADHD environment looks like but it seemed excessive. I'm hardly a military Sargent when it comes to correcting my own DS, so for me to find the behavior terrible, is noteworthy. Overall, it seemed like the students were beyond miserable and not engaged in any of the classes we saw. We visited several other schools (8th grade) where the general feeling was much more positive and teachers had control over their classes. After reading the above posts, I know it wasn't just my perception. Too bad, Lab, logistically would have been easier for us. [/quote]
