[quote=Anonymous]No. We would've picked the school we thought has more discipline. You can't learn anything if kids are not paying attention. Somehow the higher rated school tells me there is more listening going on (I might be wrong). We live in DC-plenty of diversity here. We are an international family and will be going abroad most summers. I would pick a language immersion over a higher rated school, but not if the commute was 15-20 minutes. Our current school is 1.5 blocks away. Older kid ended up in great NW school because I could afford a tiny place here vs much more expensive one in CH/Adams Morgan where metro is closer. He has done well because his classmates do well. I should've sent him to immersion school that called, but didn't want to drive far. He quite good at Spanish without immersion, and I have short commute. [/quote]
