[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do families not know what CMI's mission is for middle school? It's crazy that people only start realizing that the MS is not meant for their kid years after being in the school.[/quote] NP. We are not at CMI but I have read a lot about CMI on DCUM and this is the first that I have heard that the middle school is entirely unsuitable for high-SES or high-performing kids. To the contrary, many many many CMI parents have gone on DCUM saying how happy they are that they're all set until high school. [/quote] +1. How are families -- especially families not already attending the school -- expected to know that a school's mission changes midstream if this information is not something the school makes known? (For example, I wouldn't guess that the middle school diverged radically from the elementary school based on the website -- http://www.creativemindspcs.org/programs.php .) We don't know the secret handshake that reveals the Hidden Book.[/quote] + 2 CMI parents get huffy when asked if their school is designed for special needs kids.[/quote]
