[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Local public elementary schools are excellent, and your kids get to develop neighborhood friendships with (depending on where you live) a wide, uncurated variety of people.[/quote] Lol, local public schools are excellent. Ummm not even close. [/quote] Where we live there's a large selection of great local elementary schools. It's easier for people to be confident in a local elementary. Middle schools are where things start getting more complicated. Bigger, a bit more chaotic. And high schools vary greatly. The pattern is very much private enrollment starting at 6th or 9th grade intakes. Starting private in K is more rare although it does happen. It does help to avoid paying tuition for elementary! In some places the pattern can be the reverse, especially in urban areas without great local zoned elementaries but when you get to middle / high schools, you get good charter options. [/quote]
