[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think I did myself a disservice by touring schools like Maret, Sidwell, & WIS, & comparing :([/quote]
The biggest benefit to sending your child to the in bounds elementary school is the experience of being in a local, community school.  My daughter does scouts, sports, art classes, swims at the pool, and plays at the parks with the kids she sees at school.  She can walk around the block and run into her best friends.  I know a dozen parents I can call if I can't make it to pick up in time or if I need to know what time ride your bike to school starts etc.  
She is also being exposed to the reality that the majority of people in this country don't live as well as we do.  I went to public school with a student body that was largely working class and even at a young age I realized that my family had a much easier life than some of my classmates.  [/quote]

I have to agree with this. I am moving from montgomery county to pg county and will be enrolling our child in the public school in pg county. I think there are many benefits in going the public school right, even for pg county. The only problem I have with the pg county school system, is that their schools are very much less diverse than montgomery county. No fault of the schools. [/quote]
