[quote=Anonymous]I just never saw any reason for private. My kids’ academic experience in a W district is world’s better than the education I received at the various rural schools I attended growing up, and they’ve enjoyed school and their community throughout. Older two are now in college at top 20 and top 10 schools, respectively, and there is no difference between their college readiness and success and that of the Big 3 kids they’ve met. Youngest turned down two MS magnet invites to stay with his ES peer group because he was happy with the status quo. My folks always told us that if you come from a supportive family, work hard, and read a lot (or otherwise develop the ability to learn new things) you have all you need to be successful in life. Maybe a bit overly simplistic, but has been largely true in our experience. [/quote]
