[quote=Anonymous]We have/had one at each. I think it really depends on the kid. Whitman has some amazing teachers. And some not so great ones. But that can be true in private as well. Whitman is obviously bigger and your kid will be in a class of 30 rather than 15-20. But, Whitman also offers an incredible range of courses. Much broader and deeper than any private school can offer. There is a wide range of students at Whitman. From the very engaged and self-motivated to the disengaged. It’s a great environment for a self-motivated kid who will take advantage of the wide range of courses. This was my child who went to Whitman. I personally would not send a kid who is not self-motivated or disengaged to Whitman. Nor would I send a quieter kid who benefits more from a smaller environment to Whitman (this is my kid in private).[/quote]
