[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. you have tons of money and looking for prestige. 2. you love dc living and don't want to move from your cool neighborhood to jklm so are either getting some financial aid or working your butts off to make it work. 3. you are scared to trust the public school system because of a story you heard from a friend of a friend. -- things you won't get out of privates 1. dc public schools are more rigorous curriculum wise and in many cases more innovative- this is why whenever a private kid has to go into public for various reasons ($$ being the primary) - they are behind in math. 2. colleges love some of dcps including wilson and have as good as a track record for ivies as most privates including big 3s 3. real life experience in a diverse atmosphere [/quote] Seriously? I'm a product of public school education, including a state university, and proud of it, but get over yourself. My kids are in private for reasons that are pointless to explain to you. You have such a huge inferiority chip on your shoulder,you are embarrassing yourself. I hope your kids don't pick up on your tremendous insecurities. It will not serve them well. [/quote]
