[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Struggling with this decision and would like to hear others’ perspectives. Also worried that since we are in a top rated public district, the people opting for private will be extremely religious families and kids with behavior or social issues, neither of which describes us. [/quote] We live in Fairfax County in a "great" pyramid. Many people will tell you that FCPS is an excellent public school system; that was not our experience. We are Catholic and attend church regularly, so I don't know if that counts as "extremely religious" in your book, but we did not like the DEI and woke political stuff in public school. As for behavior/social issues, that was the straw that broke the camel's back for us at public school -- disruptive students and other behavioral problems that were not addressed due to FCPS concerns about "disparate discipline" statistics not fitting the woke political agenda. So, we left and have been very happy. [/quote]
