[quote=Anonymous]Just know APS doesn’t live up to its reputation. That said, there’s nothing that comes close to building a community of neighbors and friends. I’d say that’s more valuable than the academic advantages of private. Most kids will thrive any where and enrichment is very easily supplemented. Personally, we found Catholic k-8 to be the best of both worlds but I’d only recommend if you’re Catholic. Joining private high school is probably the way to go, though, even knowing there’s no college admissions advantage. But the better network, education and ability for the kids to create their own social life even if friends are more spread out make it worth it over APS’s good but huge high schools. [/quote]
