[quote=Anonymous]DeMatha Like the structured and well-staffed academic support, emphasis on community and service, lots of clubs and activities beyond sports (many clubs meet during homeroom), variety of academic offerings, including strong music and STEM programs. Communication from school has been pretty good and there have been multiple DPO-organized events for parents to connect. Don't like that some teachers are inconsistent about where they post assignments, the transportation was a bit hit or miss in the beginning of but sorted out now, major sports are harder to access. About 1 to 1.5 of homework per night (mostly honors classes) plus about 30 minutes of reading. Could probably cut that down to an hour or less of he used his study hall time more effectively or visited academic support regularly. Seems to be enjoying most his classes, wants to get involved in the school, has made a lot of friends, hates the commute.[/quote]
