That is a very strange school. Very hippiy dippy. As a schoolteacher, that would not fly with me. I'm glad your daughter is doing well i n spite of that. We do have some schools in our area that sounds very similar. I do not agree with their philosophies. As a school teacher you should know that not all kids learn best in a traditional environment and this young lady probably thrived in the alternate school because of it not in spite of it.

That's just awesome! You know, I think you should feel free to brag on Facebook, if you want. I see parents do it all the time and I don't mind those types of posts one bit. I am always glad to hear when a kid is doing well. Something similar happened to my own son. There was a math placement test for 8th grade and he scored the highest in his grade. He is so smart, but hates to do homework, so his grades aren't as good as they could be. But he absolutely thrived this year in math because his homework wasn't graded, only tests. He ended up placing into an advanced math class for next year. I felt good bragging about it. He deserved some praise. It was a good change from my normal chasing him around, hounding him about homework.

Brag away.
