[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child will enroll in the Fall in a Title I school that has been identified as a "Priority School" by my state and is rated 1/10 on greatschools. My relatives are absolutely outraged about this and think I'm making my child into a "social experiment." [b]I have thought long and hard about this choice and just ethically, logistically and financially [/b]I think it's the right one for my family. But I have my own anxiety about the school and hearing all this pushback from my family is making me doubt my choice. How do I remain confident in my decision? I've blocked the relatives from communicating with me for now. But the doubt still remains. I guess my question is will an otherwise engaged and happy 5 year old fare fine in any school or does rating really matter?[/quote] Just tell them you chose the school based on your ethics (?), family logistics and finances. Period. Won't know until you try it, no matter what you pick or move. [/quote]
