[quote=Anonymous]I have been perusing the recent topics and have noticed a flurry of angst regarding private school admittance. I was just wondering why people would be so disappointed in a rejection from a specific private school. Do you honestly believe that private schools are better than our local public schools? Last I checked, MCPS and FCPS are among the best in the nation. I ask this honestly because I am a family that can afford private education but chose public school due to its resources. My DS has mild ASD with an IEP and is in AAP due to his exceptional IQ. My other DS is in public first grade (being pulled out for advanced work) and my DD (3) is in a half day AMI Montessori school. I cannot help to think that I am not providing the best academic environment for my children after seeing so many posts about garnering admission to private school. Am I depriving my children of an opportunity? What does private schools offer that public schools cannot?[/quote]
