[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]7th grade Hardy parent here. We are planning for MacArthur and feel good about it. Not sure I would have felt the same for starting my kid there this year or last year, but we feel that after another year it will be a great place for our DC. Agree that ending the J-R option will have an immensely positive impact and that MacArthur is going to be a fantastic school within a few years [/quote]

We're still a few years away as well, and I agree. DCUM will always have the loud naysayers, but those are probably the same folks that still look down on Hardy as being less than Deal. Different, yes. But for us at least, we prefer those differences for our kid's needs. MacArthur will be the same - it will never be a replica of J-R, but it's not intended to be, and may be preferable for some families. The neighborhood chatter re: Mac is much more optimistic than DCUM, at least with my younger parent crowd. 100% agree that I'd have concerns if I had an 8th or 9th grader this year, but if Mac is the high school version of Hardy in a few years, we'll be happy to have it as our IB option.[/quote]
