[quote=Anonymous]I am going to add in our experience although affording private was a no brainer for our finances, it's not always the best choice. And definitely not the most cost effective. Public with tutors works just as well for many kids, with out the over $30,000 price tag. In our mind as parents we got one shot at educating our children. We wanted them to love learning, reading and math. We wanted them to be life long learners, not just the basics. We wanted them to appreciate how hard life can be without a good education as well. For example, education out side of school means part time jobs in summer and during HS. Being a hard worker, not giving up when things get hard. I digress, sorry. Kind of a pet peeve of mine. I am a firm believer that public school is extremely important. Like I said, we have done both, neither is better pre covid. It all depends on the child.[/quote]
