[quote=Anonymous]I don’t have any personal experience with this, but my kids attend an UMC suburban public that competes with a large, popular Catholic high school nearby for enrollment. We did not consider private, but many of my kids’ friends moved there for high school. Many of the kids were given the choice (or the kid’s input was weighed heavily into the decision) by their parents. At the end of freshman year, everyone seems happy with their decision from what I hear. We also know several cases where one sibling has chosen public, the other private (including a set of twins) so a lot of families have taken kids’ individual preferences and needs into account. Maybe take your 7th grade for a tour, look closely at both schools and what they offer and share that info with him. Especially if he is interested in a particular sport or extracurricular or academic offering. [/quote]
