I am not familiar at all with tt elementary in Manhattan, but I went for orientation at South Mountain this year (starting K next year) and the school was so cute and welcoming and there seemed to be surprisingly little pressure on K students to read and perform other academic tasks (as compared with my "tt" NYC local public school that asigns homework every night in K and pushes reading, etc.) [ Reply | More

interesting, that kind of scares me -- was it too laid back? [ Reply | More

I liked the feel for K. Maybe it's because my ds is shead of the curve and I'm not looking at K to teach him the traditional K skills. With that said, all the people who move to Millburn do so because of the school system (since you can buy the exact house a couple of towns over for 1/2 the price it is in Millburn). There's a real push towards academic excellence by both the parents and the schools (and sports is really big as well). With all that said, the K was adorable and nurturing and I loved it.
