[quote=Anonymous]After several rounds of debating, our FHES 2d grader is switching to LA.  We've put three kids into FHES and this is our last.  Frankly, we're happy that we're ending our relationship with FHES now.

We've had some good experiences with FHES and some not so great ones.

But, the overriding concern that we've had recently is the plan to no longer have a separate L-IV class for our youngest daughter.  She's well ahead of most all kids in his class and she feels frustrated having to be in a holding pattern with other kids.  By having a big set of regular classes with kids floating into and out of the classroom all of the time (for math, etc.) is a hassle and a distraction.

We're also concerned with certain things in the school generally - starting with the top of the school.  From our perspective, there is a major lack of willingness to tackle serious issues.  One issue is the abhorrent situation with Kiss and Ride.  I cant tell you how many parents have complained about people failing to follow the established procedure on dropping off kids in the morning (that is, lining up on the Vale Road access road and proceeding orderly).  Instead of following an orderly route, you have folks plowing up Flint Hill Road and demanding that they be allowed to cut in line by turning left into the K&R dropoff line.  This has created complete gridlock situations - especially when a bus is involved.  The insanity and stress of that intersection is probably what contributed to the crossing guard being put in the hospital for a week a couple years back.
