[quote=Anonymous][quote] It's starting to sound like the twilight zone when parents pay 30K for elementary school and[u] give as their reason that they want their kids to spend more time on recess, lunch, and specials.[/u] [/quote] NP here. I mean this in all sincerity, without snark: ^^^ this is not a small reason why we chose private school in NW DC for elementary. We are very retro. Most of my friends live in the Whitman cluster and are politely surprised at how far ... "behind" DS compared to their E.S. kids, especially in math. He's probably 2 grades "behind" the kids at Bradley Hills and Somerset, as far as I can tell. We we talk about curriculum, I get a lot of raised eyebrow looks and comments like PPs above. I'm not the least concerned. [/quote]
