[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“While the Weedons have seen the social and community benefits that come with attending their neighborhood middle school, they have also encountered the challenges. Most prominently: high turnover among teachers and administrators, which leads to an unstable academic environment. His daughter says she has become an expert card player because of all the free time she has had with substitute teachers.” Amazing. I am hopeful that my children will learn more than cards in middle school. [/quote] This was the part that stuck out to me as well. I value public schools and would prefer to send our kids to one.... but not so they can learn to play cards, which is why we chose a charter school (Latin). We would have applied to private schools if the charter lottery hadn’t worked out, rather than send our children to Eliot Hine. [/quote]
