[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]

I have plenty of criticisms, but none of them are consistent with yours, which sound like you want some of the standard school offerings easily found elsewhere.  There is no reason SWS has to do things like other schools to legitimize the program.

Not to disparage other schools that do musicals or dramatic arts, but SWS has ample music and arts integration and the notion of school plays with leads and minor parts just seems a bit out of touch.  I'm perfectly happy to have no musicals or safety patrols.  The project PP mentioned was amazing[/quote]

So - are you a 3rd grade parent?  And what are your criticisms?[/quote]

multiple grades (including 2nd)... and nothing I'd ever share on DCUM[/quote]
