[quote=Anonymous]OP, with a 3-year-old kid you think that YY is the cat's meow and are thrilled to get a spot! By the upper grades, you've had a reality check. By DCI, you've had to face up to the fact that YY-DCI academics are nothing special. There isn't enough academic challenge in the DCI MS for the brightest and hardest-working students (many of the kids would be at BASIS or the Latins if they'd got spots). The result is that most of the high-achieving 8th graders try to leave for Walls, Banneker, privates. There is Chinese challenge at DCI, but it's rare for students to speak the language well or attend immersion camps like Concordia. [/quote]
