re: EBR Magnet program advice

Posted by palderm on 1/24/20 at 10:59 am to
Our son was accepted in the Montessori Magnet program at Dufrocq at age 3. He is now finishing up 5th grade and it has been a very good experience for him. I will admit, the first three years were great, but I am concerned about the future of the program. We did the same thing, magnet with gifted program as a backup plan.

Dufrocq offered traditional, academic magnet and Montessori magnet programs. It was ideal and offered choices for parents. For some reason, they decided to phase out the acaedemic magnet and expand Montessori. School administration leaves a lot to be desired. The teachers our son has had have been great. We meet with them regularly, follow up with his performance and help out where we can in the classroom.

He'll be continuing on the magnet track for middle school and hopefully attend BR High.

Concorde Condominiums on Congress?

Anyone familiar with Concorde Condominiums on Congress as an investment? Our real estate agent mentioned that a couple are coming available, but the price seems ridiculously low. Cash flow looks good, but I have no idea of their actual rent. I haven't scheduled a showing yet, just checking here before I spend any more time on it.
