[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your #1 goal is for your kid to attend Gilman (based on your philosophical post above), the best path to do that is to commit to your kid repeating 8th grade. That will give you the best shot, but not a certain one.[/quote] We're open to it as parents. My child may or may not be open to the idea. It would depend if he could do that at Gilman or not. Repeating 8th at his current school would likely be really uncomfortable for him & he would be very bored. I don't think they would ask him to repeat 8th based on academic performance, testing or maturity. Based on age alone, from what I'm hearing, yes they might. I'm trying to get a consensus on their school of thought. Should I be direct and ask admissions this question? [/quote]
