[quote=Anonymous]I sent my kid to a CES, and he is now at his home middle school after being placed in the middle school magnet pools, but not receiving a spot. While the CES experience was overall good, it was a lot of work, with a lot of overlapping deadlines. I guess not too much unlike how middle school has been so far. The CES curriculum was writing-intensive, and while I don’t have a basis to compare it to 4th and 5th grade at the home school, being on the other side of it, I’m not sure it made that much of a difference for where my kid is at now academically. There seems to be a lot of writing in the enriched humanities classes in 6th grade. Socially, I think my kid wishes he’d stayed at the home elementary school. Bottom line, I guess I don’t view the CES as a game changer. [/quote]
