[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, don't donate your money now...hold on until you know you really won't need it.  Then do donate it if you can!  Go you!  More of us should do the same.[/quote]

OP here-- thanks for your vote of support!  I think there are a lot of people in our DCPS that do likewise, but we can't really talk about it amongst ourselves because it sounds totally braggy, plus wannabe "noblesse oblige"!

In response to those asking why I posted here, I guess I was hoping I would hear from folks that are in private school now that used to be in DCPS and how they decided to make the switch.  Did you do testing first or meet with an educational consultant?

But considering the nasty response from a few above, perhaps a more pressing question is how did the other kids treat your kids when they transferred into the private?  Were they warmly welcomed?  Was there an assumption from the teachers that your child would need remedial help?  did other parents welcome you?  assume your family was poor/ "stupid" because you placed your child at DCPS for elementary?
