[quote=Anonymous]As somebody who's posted here a bunch of times about switching my kid from Fieldston to a top public: take the public, a good public school is going to be superior to a 2T private both academically and socially. The main reason to prefer private would be if, as other people have mentioned, your child has special issues or you need a lot of extra hand-holding in some way, though even there in a lot of cases the public may be more willing to help. Outside enrichment is a great idea, but I would encourage you to look beyond RSM/Kumon or whatever and not limit yourself to academic enrichment. A rigorous Suzuki violin school - and kindergarten is a perfect age to start - will do far more to develop your child's brain than extra math, not just for the music theory but also because the process and the struggle of mastering an instrument helps develop some amazing skills for later in life.[/quote]
