[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hello all and best wishes to finding academic bliss wherever you land. I couldn't read these posts about GAS without adding my 2cents though. There certainly is no perfect school for everyone and GAS is no different. You need to decide if their approach works for your family then do your best to support and collaborate with the school. It's a team effort (which was very different from the adversarial relationship we found in public school for three years before coming here). I am a current parent at GAS and also have an alumni in HS. This is my 8th year at the school and I LOVE it more today than when our family started here. We were looking for a place that would allow our children to love learning in a developmentally appropriate way, understand their strengths and weakness and be able to advocate for themselves in an academic setting and of course to be academically prepared to move forward into HS. We have realized all of that and then some for our children. [b] I personally know both MS head and teacher[/b] in and out of school and know them to be genuine people who care deeply about their work. They have oth been support active and creative with problem solving with my family many times over. [b] I can't imagine the MS without them[/b] and welcomed the opportunities for discussion that the classes allow us at home about respecting other peoples opinions. I have watched the school grow every year as it constantly challenges itself to grow and continue progressing. I could go on endlessly but I think you get the point. Again my most genuine wishes for your search of academic bliss. My search ended over eight years ago when I received our acceptance letters to GAS. :)[/quote] Did you get the memo that the MS head is leaving? [/quote]
