[quote=Anonymous]Thanks to the PP for her helpful perspective on Hardy. The PTO has made curriculum as one of the big issues for this year - and there's an increasing recognition that there needs to be more of a push toward a college track emphasis as the IB population is increasing. (Yes, it is sad and systemic prejudice that it takes that to make that push). The PP's experience is great for informing how the school moves forward - and how her kids who went through the school and are now in high school are doing. This is the first year that IB kids are closer to 30% and it's expected to be bigger next year (based on the increased sizes of the 5th at the feeders, and then with the addition of Eaton the year after)... so the wave seems to be a very concerted and heavy push to a more enlightened and appropriate curriculum for all..[/quote]
