[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They'll need at least 3 new or expanded middle schools if they ever expect to move to 6-8 county wide to align with most of the rest of the country.[/quote]

No one wants to move to 6-8

Most of the middle schools are 7-8.

The 6-8 middle schools need to be eliminated so the middle schools are uniformly 7-8.[/quote]

Why are people against 6-8 for middle school? Not growing up around here having elementary go from pre K-6 is wild to me.  [/quote]

Because sixth graders are 12 years old.  My kids' sixth grade teacher did a great job transitioning them BEFORE they went to middle school.  Better than transitioning AT middle school.[/quote]
Ok, so why are 12 year olds in the same school as a 4/5 year old? But being with 14 year olds is too much? [/quote]

How many kids in elementary school are independently in halls switching classes with older or younger kids?[/quote]
They are on a school bus if interaction with other kids is the concern.  [/quote]
