Minneapolis school choice, placement, and our kids
We spent a lot of time trying to decide the best place for our kids and their schooling. Lots of options really. For a long time I was really wanting out kids to got to Blake . Its something Sunny and I talked about, nearly endlessly!
In the end we think Blake is a great school, however… we think that using the Minneapolis Public Schools and taking the money that would have gone into tuition at a private school and using it for extracurricular activities/functions/travel.
Because my schedule allowed for more tours of the Minneapolis schools, I toured several. And that was an interesting adventure. I feel every school had something great to offer.
But! I really loved Barton an open school, very near our home. It had the best overall feel for what I was looking for. It is also a k-8 program. I didnt know, until like just now, that Barton also has a blog.
So, after having just gotten our placement cards, Id like to introduce our kids, Griffin and Gavin, to Barton. We are excited as parents and feel its the best place for our kids.
