[quote=Anonymous]We had a period of time where 2 of our kids were in public and the other 2 were in parochial school. One of the biggest headaches was the difference in homework and workload. Lots more homework, summer reading, projects for the two in parochial and it caused some friction and comments how it wasn't "fair" their siblings didn't have as much work to do. If the two schools had had similar philosophies on homework it wouldn't have been as big of a deal. Uniforms for 2 kids and not for the other 2 was also a little tough and kind of the same issue. Different school schedules was tough to deal with, not just days off for vacation but start and stop times, so logistics for drop-offs and pickups were more complicated. Everything else was fine. They rarely saw each other at school anyway so it wasn't that big of deal to be in different schools. I just think we would have had an easier time if the two schools were more similar to each other.
