[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't private schools provide resources so kids don't fall behind? I mean, isn't that why people pay 30-40k/year?? Even in public schools, Alg 1 is a 7th grade math for many kids. [/quote] OP here: see, this is why I pointed out that I was stressed. I really don't think I should be, but this is the kind of thing we're up against in this area. For the record, advancing to algebra at the age of 12 is not the reason I have my DC in private, but I do feel guilty that I didn't make sure he wasn't falling behind earlier. This was his first year at this school and it's quite rigorous, so I know there's no choice. But I am disappointed. [/quote] Don't feel guilty and don't dwell on the past. Focus on the future and what you can do to get him to where he needs to be. If that meas getting him a tutor a few nights a week then so be it. The important part is that he is working hard, applying himself and seeing the fruits of his labor. [/quote]
