[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These threads about ms at IT and CMI and Lee make me so hopeful.  Not everyone wants a deal or a DCI.  I think middle school is such a vulnerable age that I want a place where my kids are known and cared for as individuals (small school) and where learning can continue to be individuated and active and inquiry based (progressive).  If any of these schools creates a solid (low tech) curriculum and has great teachers and a safe, respectful social environment, we will lottery for it in a heartbeat  And there are many others like me.  People who happily stayed at their EPTP neighborhood school but don't like their MS option; people who are in immersion schools but don't want DCI's focus on technology; people at CMI and ITS and Lee who aren't interested in Basis or Latin; people in good wotp schools who know their kids will be eaten alive at Deal and want a smaller school for them.[/quote]

Deal gets a bad rap about its size. From every family I know at Deal, they actually don't get eaten alive. They separate the kids in such a good way it feels like a small school within a school. My DC goes to one of the above schools and we are also IB at Deal. I am happy to have the choice but wanted to chime in about Deal.[/quote]

Honest question, why don't you go to Deal?[/quote]
