[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are educated professionals. My husband thinks that just based on this fact alone, our kids will be fine at our neighborhood school (it’s pretty decent), which is walkable from our home. We also have the option of private or testing into gifted schools but these options are 17-30 mins away from us. It may be that these schools aren’t any better than our public school since these gifted and private schools basically selective for type A parents. In your opinion, does the school matter as much as the parents? [/quote] Parents who are involved are more influential than the school, but the school environment still influences your kids' attitudes toward high academic achievement. There are more pros than cons to sending your kids to a better school. Good luck.[/quote]
