[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, I think GDS is the perfect school for families that have the ability to supplement as needed. It is exceedingly lovely while also expecting the kids,/parents to do more whenever an issue arises. Not sure what this means. Can you elaborate?[/quote] Kids do well because parents supplement. If it's a stretch and you can't afford to supplement or don't think your child should have to spend time with tutors outside of school to learn what they should be learning in school, then it's a problem. Most parents who encounter issues are told that the onus is on their children to advocate for themselves first. Their are plenty of adults, much less children, who don't know how to advocate for themselves. It creates/continues a lot of entitlement and creates an environment that is not conducive to change because everyone is doing "well" and the school has no areas of improvement when the onus is all on kids and parents.[/quote]
