[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for the info. I’m trying to determine if I keep my kids (6th and 7th) at Deal. They’ve mentioned things to me, but they’re more personal, like, “How has your day?”

“Let’s go over your homework.”

Etc.

What other things are parents not told about that happen there on a daily basis? [/quote]

Could you imagine if your parents acted this way when you were in MS. My goodness[/quote]

Agreed. Sooo many stories we never told our parents about MS/HS. And still we survived and became useful members of society. [/quote]

100%. Here is just a sample of things that went on in my suburban midwest middle school in the 90s that I'm certain my parents never knew about:
- 8th grade parties where drinking was the norm
- fights in the gym locker room
- massive bullying issues 
- honor roll 7th grade girl gave a blowjob to 8th grade star football player
- conspiracy among a certain group of popular kids to cheat on math tests[/quote]

I was suspended for a week in 6th grade and it went on my permanent record. I managed to go to college and grad school. I hold down a respectable job. We all make mistakes and bad choices sometimes.[/quote]
