[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]we’re going to be looking at private schools ...[/quote] Op, all this says is, "public schools aren't good enough for us". It would have been different if there was a particular school, a private school, you liked a lot, had reasons, and explained that. Saying you hoped your DC would get in. Done. My guess is you both did each other a favor. You needed a quick litmus test re: the friendship, going forward. Now you know. You saves each other a lot of frustration. You know where each other stands.[/quote] Here is why we chose private: our in bounds DCPS elementary has 55% students below grade level for reading and math and 1 in 3 has a parent who is in prison Judge me all you want [/quote] See, at least you're honest. Way better than the people on this thread crowing about how selfish private school families are, while they sit in their Bethesda homes and send their kids to Whitman. Such diversity in that school, with less than 5% ESOL and FARMS kids. [/quote]
