[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree it makes much more sense to start the DCI at 5th. The IB curriculum is Primary Years Programme thru 5th grade, Middle Years from 6th to 10th grades, and Diploma for 11th and 12th. I think that is the reason YY admin won't consider starting at 5th.[/quote] [b]I don't think it's the goal of the DCI to "beat" Basis or Latin in competition for students[/b]. How about it makes sense to start Middle School in 6th grade? How about they hope parents will actually choose a model on its perceived merits and not because it's convenient or starts at an artificially chosen grade level? How about other reasons not known by the general public but known by the founders of the DCI who would tell if asked?[/quote] Have to agree. No interest in the BASIS (Ward 5 Middle School) problem.[/quote]
