[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are coming from a private school can you visit your public school at this point (9th grade) to compare?[/quote] I’m afraid that a visit won’t tell you that much. We actually did the K year in public and it was very helpful to have that reference point. Now going into private, we will be able to know if the tuition is worth it. [/quote] We did PK-2 in DCPS. Already seeing differences and DC hasn’t even started at the new school. Just looking at the daily schedule at the private, DC will get art, science and PE all in one day instead of just one of these. Next day: music, language and dance. These are mixed in with the core subjects, of course. I’ll be reporting back on DCUM once DC has been there for awhile as I know many are wondering if it’s worth it. Of course, every child and school is different, but happy to share our experience.[/quote]
