[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is new emphasis on writing at Brent, all the way from K to 5th. Unless Latin and BASIS open new campuses soon, which sounds unlikely, what you're going to see in the next few years at Brent are more high SES kids staying for 5th. Some will stay because they're heading for privates or the burbs afterwards, others because they struck out in the Latin and BASIS 5th grade lotteries. Brent is working harder to prepare kids for the next step with each passing year. Supplement a little on writing at home and you're fine at Brent in 2016. [/quote] I don't know that more families will stay at Brent for 5th grade with MS options becoming harder to get into. I wonder if instead you'll see families leave in younger grades as they consider the likelihood of a non-private MS vs the upheaval of moving as a child is older.[/quote]
