[quote=Anonymous]As a former Brent parent who is now IB at Deal -- the "overwhelmed by the vast choice of potential middle school" poster is crazy. Perhaps overwhelmed by the underwhelming choices. Brent kids are going to scatter all over the city hoping to get into an acceptable school. They all won't be able to get in where they want. When dealing with the Deal feeders you KNOW you will get into a good school at a minimum. Changes your mindset completely. To go from Brent to Jefferson -- that is a problem. Perhaps you have little ones who will have years before middle school. But I have a former Brent student who is now a 5th grader heading for Deal next year. Not a single Brent friend is going to Jefferson or EH. Some have put down SH for the lottery but most are hoping for Latin or OOB Hardy. There just aren't enough seats at either one to accommodate all the Brent kids much less the kids just from the other Hill schools which don't feed into SH.[/quote]
