[quote=Anonymous]NP who doesn’t care about SAT scores! I toured with my 8th grader Saturday also. The school is beautiful and it’s clear the teachers and principal care about and expect a lot from the students. I have no doubt that my child would get a good education there. But I guess I wonder about the joy aspect of things. It seems like there’s so much emphasis on academic classes that there is no time left for electives. They offer some sports, but I don’t have a particularly sporty kid. There’s a list of clubs, but it’s hard to know how active they are. A few people have mentioned lots of rules and homework to me. I just wonder what that actually means. What are the rules that bother your kid? What does homework look like, during a typical night/week? [/quote]
