[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC just finished first year at Beauvoir. We loved it. We are anxiously awaiting class lists. Do they generate those randomly, or do they divide by abilities, temperament, etc.?[/quote] They are not random. They try to build classes that are balanced in an number of ways (gender, temperament, etc.) but also take into account observations about kids who do and don't work well together and placement requests from parents. More than once we've been asked in teacher conferences which kids our DD would be most comfortable with the following year (perhaps in accommodation of her being shy, I don't know...but I offer that as an example.)[/quote]
