[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the bigger issue is that, at least among the gentrifiers that hang out on this board, lots of people want progressive, child focused schools in PK-5. But as middle and high school approach they start wanting 'rigor' (which means different things to different people. They want students to have subject matter expert teachers (history, science, English, foreign language) and textbooks/ math classes that follow or lead to the traditional sequence (pre-Algebra, Algebra, Geometry). This is part of why so many leave TR at 5th, and I think it's going to be an ongoing challenge for CMI and IT. Even if you don't want your child at BASIS through high school, you are pretty confident that by 8th your kid will be able to get past the admissions test for SWW or Banneker's process or a private school. [/quote] This exactly. But even if you plan to do Banneker for high where does one go for middle?[/quote]
