[quote=Anonymous]We are new to 6th grade this year. It's been wonderful so far. here are a few random and not so random thoughts: *rigorous program *teachers are energetic, hard working, enthusiastic, creative, and highly motivated. I have been impressed with the quality of the assignments. The focus is on problem-solving and critical thinking skills. *fantastic development of organizational skills. they are really working with 6th graders on how to manage their time. It feels like they are preparing them for 7/8 and beyond. *fabulous lunches included. sounds silly, but I could never approach the variety and nutritional value of what is served daily. *after school program has a nice vibe *Sally Selby is outstanding, a wonderful leader. *my child feels like all the kids are super nice, really inclusive *very diverse community. *terrific welcoming of new families over the summer with many social events large and small so my child felt comfortable walking in the first day. *6th grade PE every day just before lunch, well thought out, gives kids a chance to rotate through all the sports so they can make choices next year about which teams they'd like to join. *nice array of clubs to join after school *my child is very very happy at the school.
