[quote=Anonymous]I've debated this question in my mind since my son started kindergarten and I am still on the fence, which is why I want to hear from others (especially people who attended private school). What advantages does private really offer anyone? I get why the uber wealthy send their kids- they won't miss the money and they have sent their kids for generations, and want to stick to their own kind. What about the rest of us? We definitely could use the money for other things, but make the decision to pay for private instead. Is it worth it? Do the schools prepare these kids better academically/socially? Do the kids make "better/"richer friends or connections that will benefit them later? Are the kids more likely to get into top ranked schools, and is it because of the school or the kid? I've heard varying opinions from others, justifying their own choices, but I want to get to get honest opinions from DCUM. [/quote]
