[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All I can say is my dc, who just finishing up freshman year at DESA says 8th grade at their private school was much more rigorous. I’m a little concerned about college readiness but hoping that by sticking to honors/AP classes, dc will be ok in college.[/quote] I am not aware of anyone that attends DESA (this is Duke Ellington...correct?) for the rigor of their academic classes or even cares much about that. Everyone I know attends because they want to be professional actors, musicians, etc. This is kind of an odd post.[/quote] Not all kids go on to be artists/actors/musicians. Even if they do end up on that track, they still need to go to college, and even at an art school, you have to take academic classes (speaking as an art school graduate). That was a weird response.
