[quote=Anonymous]DH and I both went to public schools, then private college and professional school, and we believe in public education. We donate to our education foundation rather than pay for private school. Also, I've found that a gifted or magnet school is better than most private schools for a truly gifted kid (with top 1-2% scores) who needs gifted services. Finally, the AP programs are quite good in many public schools. In my public high school, the AP kids basically attended a school within the school. We had several National Merit finalists and sent several to the Ivies each year. The safety risks are real - I think that is the most likely reason why we would consider switching. [/quote]
