[quote=Anonymous]There is no perfect school, from pre-K to grad school. Repeat as necessary. Time after time shows that success is linked to hard work and drive more than any degree or college name. So...what do you do with that information? You make the best choice you can based on available information at each stage. We did Montessori through 5th grade, switched to a traditional private from 6-8, then did public high school. Kid got into top choice, a very selective SLAC around 7% acceptance rate. There are no guarantees. My kid did not prefer any Ivys but may have been competitive there given her good showing in the SLACs (Amherst, Hamilton, Swarthmore, etc.) You can't compare yourself. Make the right choice for your family, your child, your financial situation. Success can come in many different packages.[/quote]
