[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Academics are very important to our family so I’ll certainly be digging deep into this latest data. The school has received many accolades and awards over the years— which have been well-deserved in my opinion based on how my children are performing. My understanding is that the latest scores are focused on CAPE and grades 3-5. Unlike other language immersion programs, Sela admits students at all grades. 4th and 5th are small class sizes based on what I previously noted above about no feeder school, etc. I’m planning to dig into scores of students who have been at Sela for many years and those who just joined and took the test if this data is accessible.

I’ll also note that [b]Sela meets students where they are and provides differentiation when needed.[/b] For example, if your child is a high performer, their needs will be met. If they are not, their needs are met as well through various formats. The administration has an open door and will sit down with you and discuss learning needs and whatever else you need in detail. They take feedback seriously and adjust as needed. That has been our experience. This anonymous petition, especially the approach of posting in this forum, is entirely the opposite of the school culture and experience we know and love. We don’t even know if this is coming from current parents, families who chose to leave, or a combination. Hope this information is helpful. [/quote]

This is what all schools do, or at least are supposed to do. It's not something unique about Sela or anything to brag about.[/quote]
