[quote=Anonymous]I am a first-time parent with a child who will go to kindergarten next Fall. I'm told that if we want to put her in private school, we have to apply a year in advance, which is why I'm soliciting guidance now. If she goes to public school, it would be Burning Tree in Bethesda. I've been told to put her in private school by other parents, who express that private schools in Bethesda have smaller class sizes, better teachers, less violence among students (really? in elementary school?), better resources (computers, field trips, etc.) and the like than do the public schools. I'm a complete rube here, and would appreciate your thoughts on the value of private school at such a young age, and your experiences at Burning Tree or other Bethesda-area public schools. Thanks![/quote]
