[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gosh - I am really surprised at how adamantly people defend SWS. We're also 3rd grade parents, and I wonder if it's because the other parents are not yet in the upper grades. For the six years, we've been at the school, we've not once gone to an outside library (i.e, NE library). And the school is lacking options for older kids. Other CH schools do musicals, safety patrols, etc. The school has a lot on its plate with the expansion and is a solid educational choice, but let's not ignore the fact that these things (along with others mentioned above) are missing and there's room for improvement.[/quote] Oops - should have said five years that we've been at the school - my bad.[/quote] New SWS parent here (got in for PS3). So, what can I and other parents do to help the school improve for the upper grades?[/quote] That's the spirit! Sounds like an amazing opportunity to shape our school, let's roll up our sleeves! And no, I'm not a SaHp with too much time on her hands, but tight parameters breed creative solutions, no? My first grader's current school (out of state-we are about to move) uses this awesome project-based learning curriculum called Project Lead the Way (https://www.pltw.org). Might be a good fit for the upper grades at SWS![/quote]
