My daughter is about to enter the center at Drew (in a few days ..) Our home school is Westover and no other kids from Westover chose to go (Accepted – our daughter and 3 boys).

I am so nervous about how it will go – but many of the problems that you discuss (lunch, recess, music) were issues at Westover too.

The difference is that Westover still has quite a bit of a caring community (active PTA, some caring teachers, strong principal) and they seem to be improving. I don’t know how Drew will be, I’ve heard mixed reviews.

Anyway, thanks for these two articles, they provide a reality check. I hope C. is okay.
