[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Acadamic excellence needs to make students work hard to reach their potential, but at the same time many oarents are complaining their kids are under too much pressure to take APs or other highly challenge classes and too much homework in ES and MS. Is there a way to achieve excellence without too much homework/stress? Looking for a school cluster is balanced.[/quote] There is not a cluster or school that will be perfect. The only balance you can give your child is to NOT feel pressure by you, the school, or anyone else to overwhelm his or her potential. My daughter dropped out of two honors courses because she needed a little bit more of a life. 3 season of sports and some clubs were more important than the top tier class. Would you as a parent be okay with that? If not, it won't matter where you send your kid. You will pressure them. [/quote]
