[quote=Anonymous]In my opinion, it's too bad if people are moving away from K-8s. I am a high school teacher at a school that starts in the younger grades. When friends ask my advice, I always suggest they look at the K-8 option so that they have a better idea by high school where their child would be happy. If people are going away from K-8s because they are afraid that child will not be accepted to the most selective private schools, I worry that they are overlooking the issue of the best fit. The most prestigious school is not always the best choice (it should go without saying, but . . . .). Moreover, at our school there is no question the upper school gets more attention/focus in all areas. As a parent I'd want a school where the focus was more on the younger grades. Oh well, I guess this trend is good for the school I'm currently at . . . [/quote]
