Anyone have experience with this program?
(considering for dd who is going into 7th Grade and wondering if she should NOT grade advance to 8th in order to keep her at right age level for this program? -- but limited UWC admission numbers might not make that a good choice to not grade advance...UWC apparently does admission by grade-level, not age...thoughts?)
