[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We did the K-8 for our children and while we had a great experience the HS search was more involved than I ever anticipated and it overshadowed the whole K-8 experience. I don’t regret having chosen the K-8. However, with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight I wouldn’t choose it again. Lesson learned for my next life.[/quote]

You must have misspoken.  There is no way that the brief process of applying to high school during Oct-Dec of the 8th grade year overshadows the experience of the [i]entire preceding 8 years[/i] (kindergarten, first, second grade, etc).

In middle school at my kids k-12 - the kids get a lot of leadership opportunities with the younger kids and great mentorship from the older kids.

There are several events at our school that pair the upper school seniors with kindergartners, and it’s really really sweet. The rest of the time, the lower, middle, and upper schools all have separate buildings in separate parts of the campus, so I don’t feel that there’s any negative at all.[/quote]
