[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am new to CMI this year with three children there. I did not go to the Open Houses -- only checked out the school when one of our children was offered a spot from the lottery. I had hoped to continue them in an immersion program, since they already had two years of Spanish classroom but my children all were expressing strong feelings against it. Think hard about whether it is you interested in immersion, or your child. Afterall, they are the ones going to school every day. Are they motivated to speak in another language? Do they have speech therapy or other needs? CMI is a great place to get any services your child might require. As far as the principal goes, I'm very impressed. She is a really serious and dedicated person whose primary focus is curriculum and the psychology of learning. This is the fifth school I've experienced as a parent, all of them good experiences, but this one is so far among the best -- for the vision of the leadership, organization, teaching, enthusiasm. [/quote] You got 3 kids into Creative Minds in one year?? :shock: :shock: How is that even possible?[/quote] Same PP, meaning, yes I know if you get one child in, sibs rise to the top of the waitlist for their grade (unless there's an earlier admitted sib ahead of them), but how does one family manage 3 spots even with that process at a school that I thought had so very few spots??[/quote]
