[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC was CES at CCES for 4th and 5th (cut short due to Covid).  Found teachers at CCES to be amazing and the best teachers as a group that DC has had.  Enjoyed the projects and creativity that the teachers employed in teaching and for the most part found like-minded and interested children.  Have not seen DC as thrilled and happy to go to school as DC was during those two years.  We aren't fans of the principal, but we have nothing but good things to say about the teachers and curriculum.  Have found the middle school experience -- WMS -- to be sorely lacking and without real rigor -- even in the supposedly advanced curriculum.  Program seems to be dumbed down instead of really creative and rigorous. [/quote]

This was our experience, with a child in the same class.  The word "transformative" gets overused, but that really was the experience at CCES CES for our child. The only downside would be the commute for some kids coming from the far ends of the bus routes if they weren't being driven.  As tremendous an experience as it was, not sure 2.5 hours on a bus each day would be worth it.

Maybe the home school experience is now closer to the CES experience given all the changes, and all the ES's in the CCES CES catchment area are strong, but it was no comparison during the years our child was at CCES CES. [/quote]
