[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What schools like Latin do you have in mind? Boston Latin, Roxbury Latin, and Washington Latin would never use use social promotion in any form.[/quote]

It seems like Washington Latin is a perfectly good urban charter school but you can't honestly be putting it on the same level as Roxbury Latin.[/quote]

And therein lies the problem.  I wouldn't send DC to a high school not on par academically (could care less about social) with TJ, Stuy, Roxbury Latin, Exeter, Andover, etc.  perhaps Basis DC will reach that level - certainly hope so.  Otherwise, we'll be moving or paying so that DC can go to a first rate high school.[/quote]

Please go quickly.  Although it wasn't on your list, Blair magnet begins tracking for its program no later than 6th grade and that is if you do serious supplemental math before then.  Otherwise they start tracking for it beginning in 4th with the GT programs.  To get in GT at 4th you need to be close to 2 grade levels ahead in math and reading.  Better hurry!!!![/quote]
