[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not to mention that there are plenty of parents with tech savvy kids who thrive in tech-rich environments, too. And no, I'm not just spouting mindless boosterism. I really am thrilled at the prospect of a place for my techie kids.[/quote]

Well then, time will tell.  It'll be interesting to see how gung-ho about that level of tech-focus parents continue to be as more and more research about the negative impacts on learning and health of too much tech come out.  I forsee it as only a matter of time before DCI loses a lot of the parents who commit the most time and energy to a school like DCI.  That would be very very bad for the school, and I'd bet on it changing then.  But that is probably quite a few years down the road, so yes, maybe for now it'll be just us few who find other options.

But no way am I exposing my kids to that much tech, that much of each day, based on what I already have learned about the impacts.  If there are tons of parents waiting to take my spots, so be it.  We all do what we think is best for our kids.[/quote]
