[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know there are a few sane Eaton posters on here, but pretty much every time Eaton comes up, an Eaton parent finds a new way to make me dislike them. The continual ability to post something hyperbolic is remarkable. (I imagine many on here feel the same way about Hardy IB posters, of which I'm one.)

I have no dog in this fight. (My kids will go to a national origin school after Mann.) But the writing is clearly on the wall for anyone caring enough to look: Hardy is improving and is about to improve a lot more very rapidly. Several weeks ago I offered a wager to a Hardy basher about the quality of the school within five years. I can't help but notice no one even thought about taking me up on the wager. [/quote]

You're rather full of yourself describing yourself ad a "Hardy IB poster" when you're just following the same Mann pattern of eschewing Hardy in favor of another middle school option!  It's easy to preach when the sermon is only for others![/quote]

Quite the contrary about the pattern. Initially, my kids were going to go to their national origin school from the start. This was always the plan. The community experience with Mann has prompted us to send them to Mann for elementary. We cannot delay the national origin school longer, however, as they wouldn't be able to attend university in their home countries. (Yeah, you see, it ain't always as simple as you think...) As for being full of myself: I've heard that before, so it sounds like a fair criticism. [/quote]

Fair enough explanation, but minimizing the concerns of IB parents about Hardy does seem a case of "do what I say, not what I do."[/quote]
