[quote=Anonymous]You are starting off with the opinion that those public schools are "so good." Every family has a different reason, but I would first start with the understanding that the public schools aren't always great for some students or families. Both my wife and I are public school graduates and while it has been 30+ years, the issues in public schools are the similar now as they were then, at least from our experience with our older child. She moved to private from one of the "W" schools you list and her experience has been heaps better. As we near graduation, we are thankful she attends her current school and are looking forward to her entering college with confidence and a solid academic background. Could she have developed all of the skills in public? Probably. But there was undoubtedly a lot less drama, a safer social environment, and she has a much wider circle of peers and friends than she would have had she stayed in public.[/quote]
