[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the Brent then Jefferson then Basis parent, I’m glad to hear that your daughter is now somewhere where she is happier. And not to make you relive something that was an unhappy time for your family, but I’d love to hear more about your experiences at Jefferson. How long did your daughter end up staying? Do you feel like you were promised services or options that weren’t provided? Do you feel like the change in administration from last year to this year (new principal last year, now old principal returning) might make a difference? My understanding is that class sizes were really big last year due to an unexpected influx of inbounds kids but there is an effort to keep classes smaller now. How did they split up classes? I presume your daughter was in the most advanced cohort. Did that seem to be at least on grade level even if not advanced enough for your daughter? And this is sort of a terrible question, but I’m not sure how to best phrase it - did Jefferson seem like a place where some higher SES kids could learn and be happy even if it wasn’t a good fit for your daughter?[/quote] Sorry, going to pass on answering to avoid hurting feelings of committed IB parents and probably outing my kid. If all the high SES kids at JA were as unhappy as mine, there'd be none left, so I think you have your answer. [/quote]
