[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid goes to Herndon. She is taking a lot of AP classes. Her classmates are focused. None have time to mess around during lessons. She says there are enough AP classes offered at her school. One main benefit is that she can walk to school and her friends all live close by. Also, before she could drive, pick-up after sports practices was super convenient. The new additions are great as well. In the end, kids with similar grades will probably be admitted to similar colleges. [/quote] That's great and I believe it. But what if your kid isn't one of the "top" kids? Top kids make up probably 10% of the student body. Mine is not one of the top kids but capable. We only have experience with HMS where there was so much emphasis on the bottom majority. Things like the honor roll was kept under the covers while the school was offering cookies and no Tardy parties to kids who were not late during the quarters. Way to go![/quote]
