[quote=Anonymous]My child attends Ross. Her class is not filled with rich kids, not by a long shot. We are definitely not rich, nor are the families we are closer to. Lots living in small apartments or condos purchased pre-kids in the neighborhood, or some out of boundary. Teachers and principal expect the kids to work hard, and they find ways to help each kid do their best. Parents are on board with this and willing to pitch in and help the school as they are able. It's a small community and people care. The teachers and principal know everyone by name. No, no school is perfect. But in our opinion the school and the parent community are getting a lot of things right. Yes, middle school is a problem. For a few years now quite a few have gone to BASIS. Some are trying SWW-FS. Those a few years out are keeping an eye on all options. Most of us cannot afford private school and hope to make a public or charter option work.[/quote]
