[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't say it's easy to supplement. We paid a bomb this summer for a distant language immersion camp and writing instruction after 7th grade English teaching collapsed in the early spring. Fact is, there just isn't nearly enough rigor in the DCI feeders or middle school to support serious IBD work during the last couple years of high school. We don't plan to stay for after 8th grade because my somewhat lazy smart kid hasn't been pushed from day 1, other than for language. DCI must work better if your kid is a self-starter/bookworm/math nerd than not. I don't want to get mired in relativism, sticking around for high school, thinking, well, this program must be fine because it sure beats any of our DCPS HS options or paying for a private.[/quote]
