MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Parents weighing whether to send their children to middle schools or K-8 schools have options to consider as they make decisions about their child's education.
Judy Cohen with Lakeside Educational Services joined us Monday, Dec. 29, to answer questions she has received from parents. One of the topics was the pros and cons of middle schools versus K-8 schools. Cohen addressed which option might be better for families, how parents can determine what's right for their child, and feedback she received from teachers about both models.
Cohen recommended parents visit both types of schools while they're in session to help make an informed decision.
