[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The issue raised upon about support at progressive schools is an important one. We considered Burgundy back in the day but like a PP, our DC ended up at GDS. In the end, we took DC out of GDS and put them in a more traditional K-8 because they needed more support than GDS was willing to provide. I note here that DC does NOT have learning issues and is good and capable student, but simply needs more guidance and instruction at the outset than two classroom teachers at GDS were willing to provide. As one GDS teacher put it, the students need to be self-directed and independent learners. Not all elementary (or older) students are good at this. An important consideration that I wish we would have entertained more seriously at the outset. [/quote] arrrg, about not upon![/quote]
