[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parent of a girl, deciding between Eastern and Takoma. It is tough that Takoma cancelled the orientation - the Eastern presentation was extremely impressive.

From conversations with other parents, it seems that Takoma is more integrated with the rest of the MS, while Eastern is more of a school within a school?

Any thoughts from parents that have been through the programs appreciated.[/quote]

One child in TPMS.  The math, computer  and science classes are great.  Your child will learn a lot and keep the edge in these subjects.  The English and social study classes are so slow that my DC and his peers said they learned everything already in 4th grade.  If your DC are strong in english and humnaity, they may lose interest in these subject during the three years  in tpms.  However, the is a very nice Tv production class in tpms.  As you expected, we heard opposite complain from parents whose kids went to estern ms.  If you kid is well balance and you can supplement at home, either program should be fine.  [/quote]
