[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In contrast, my kid went to Eastern magnet and it kicked his butt.[/quote] Same here! I wish she'd had a little more of what the OP posted honestly. In the end I'm not sure it's really necessary to have the amount of homework and "rigor," that exists in that program. I don't mean for everyone necessarily, but for my kid. My older kid went through the program too and I don't know if I think it's worth some of the stress. I'm sure for some kids it is...but in hindsight for my kids. The older I get and the older my kids get the less I think I should have worried so much about enrichment at a young age. They most likely would turn out just as smart, skilled and capable by age 18...but just had less homework at age 12. Obviously YMMV.
