[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are these parents staying if it’s so bad? Are their IB schools that bad? Sounds like it would most likely be better than this! [/quote] If it's P street, our school (Seaton) lost a bunch of students to MV early on (like in PK). I myself almost fell for the hype a few times, but I am SO thankful we stayed. I have a third grader, this feels like a parallel path that my kid could have experienced. Instead he has a team of third grade teachers (ELA and Math) who both have been at the school for more than a decade, are superstars, have grad degrees, and have him working way above grade level on both subjects. In addition to the ELA teachers and math/reading specialists who are always pulling kids out. I'm going to say it -- families fled their IB school bc they were afraid of the demographics. But it is a better school, period.[/quote] Us too (not at Seaton). I feel really grateful I trusted my instincts and didn’t fall for the hype. The grass isn’t always greener.[/quote] My kid is now in MS but as far back as when we did open houses and lottery research for PK3 the signs of trouble at MV were there. We did not include MV on our lottery list as a result. These issues are not new. [/quote]
