[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're just finishing out K in Mcps in a "top ranked" school. We applied to and committed to a private for next year for 1st. Dd needed smaller classes, more enrichment, and like many pps stated, a push to "do her best" that private will offer. I wasn't impressed by anything in Mcps - teachers, admin, facilities, peer group, curriculum. I could go on. [/quote] Omg it’s kindergarten [/quote] Agree. Kids don’t learn much vastly different K-3 in public or private because you have to ensure the base level foundation for all kids. People are often surprised to discover this later on.[/quote] Not many privates have to teach kids how to hold a book or a pencil, what an elephant is, or how to speak English. Privates absolutely have the advantage here. Schools can move on and focus on teaching writing, spelling, foreign language, etc. in the young ages because they have a well supported student body.
