[quote=Anonymous]My children attended/attend two of the schools on this thread and both have had very solid writing programs, but there is no question that one program was far more intense than the other. Both schools did an intense grammar review in high school, as I think they found that the new kids coming in from a variety of other schools didn't have the same foundation - not worse, but not the same. If your child really likes to read and write, I would suggest a summer program. Whether it's a camp with a newspaper, Writopia, screenwriting, or something else, there are lots of options in DC, and that is how my writer child was able to explore what type of writing he liked to do vs. what he was required to do.
