[quote=Anonymous]There's a demographic appeal when you compare to some other Ward 6 ESes, sure. And I don't know if all of the parents can afford private or even adore the Reggio component (to traditional-phile PP: the upper classes are less Reggio than traditional, but whatever, you must know something I don't) but the teachers and staff are truly amazing. I find it tough to envision a place where DS would have had such a lovely experience at a public school in DC. You can come to whatever conclusion you want about the curriculum and I get why the school doesn't appeal to all, but maybe PP is right. My kids are going to learn to read and write, I WOULD rather them doing art and music all day. This "Reggio" thing that everyone is afraid of is about establishing a sense of community that I haven't seen any other school do, including privates we have toured. But again, to each his own. In my many years on DCUM I've never once seen a booster for SWS say the school was perfection and didn't have issues, but I've never seen anyone say their kid didn't want to go to school. So, there's that.[/quote]
