[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our kid earned top grades for almost everything at YY and in 6th grade at DCI. We switched to a private for 7th grade, where we were told that his Mandarin was weak and his math and ELA were mediocre. We scrambled to catch up with his new classmates, causing us all a lot of stress. So glad we've stopped drinking the Kool-Aid.[/quote] This doesn't surprise me. We're at YY now and oldest DC gets good grades in ELA but a 2 for ELA PARCC score. The teachers and admin dismissed my concerns, stating that PARCC scores don't mean anything. We're switching younger DC's to our IB DCPS in the Fall. No more koolaid for us either. Thanks for the info re DCI. We're trying to decide between DCI and Deal for oldest DC. I'm also concerned that there will be a gap between DC and other Deal peers if we go this route and we would need to catch up. Can I ask what you've been doing to catch up? Tutoring, online programs, etc.?[/quote]
