[quote=Anonymous]Not everyone is looking for an easy path to college, especially if they choose select private school for high school. My child learned how to engage with teachers at her private and developed excellent research and writing skills which have served her well in college. She loved the smaller environment and we could afford it so we made it work (not easily). To me it seems like the people I find going on and on about this on DCUM are usually public school parents trying to warn people that it's a bad idea to choose private. While most students from my daughter's private ended up at great colleges (including my child) , it was not the driving force behind choosing it. People have many reasons and it's silly to think this is the main reason.[/quote]
