[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd love to know the circumstances that would lead to this (not for preschool but lower/middle/high school...and what the financial arrangement is.  Totally curious..no agenda.[/quote]

I can't really imagine doing this beyond preschool (or if you're blending 2 half day K programs), except in a special needs situation.  For example, I knew a kid once who was in a private special ed program due to extreme anxiety, that happened to be in the same building as a private faith based school.  As he got ready to transition the faith based school, allowed him to attend one class a day with a shadow, and then return to the therapeutic setting.  They didn't even charge tuition, because they felt it was their religious responsibility, but the parents did make a generous donation at the end of the year, that was like 1/4 of the year's tuition.  I've also know kids who have done the reverse, attending a private school, but getting therapies at the public school, and then arriving late.  I also think MCPS does this with some of their most disabled kids, having them spend mornings at Stephen Knolls and afternoons at their home school with an aide or something.

But attending Sidwell MWF and GDS T/Th? or Sheridan in the morning and Lowell in the afternoon?  I can't imagine how that would work.
