[quote=Anonymous]There is a brand new Head of School this year, who is a breath of fresh air.  Priorities include education, faculty, facility, diversity.  He talks the talk and walks the walk.

Unlike most schools, including most privates, students have had in person school all year.  Hybrid at the start, 4 days a week for a while now.  Wants to take class size from 16 to 14.  Limiting class size for US.  Over-enrolled 4th grade this year, so opened a new section of 4th grade.  Upper grades are full for next year, very low attrition, and there are just a handful of openings in the lower school (except 4th grade because they added a section - watch out when this group hits 9th grade, because that means fewer openings for newbies).

Teachers are engaged, and as my child said early on, "mom, a teacher asked me about _________ (something outside of that class). That never happened before." They are interested and care about the kids - they connect.  Administration is communicative and responsive.  Way more meetings/newsletters/information than I ever received at public.[/quote]
