[quote=Anonymous]I realize this might be dated, but I went to a private school for k-8 in the 90s and switched to MCPS public for HS (a W school). I definitely felt that the private school gave me a lot of good study skills. The public HS had larger class sizes and definitely felt less sheltered even though it is in a very wealthy area. I am glad I switched because the private I was in is a huge pressure cooker at the high school level (from what my friends who stayed tell me). And fwiw if I had to guess from the people I know, the public school kids have more successful careers than the private school kids, but of course the public school is a larger pond so that might just be statistics.[/quote]
