[quote=Anonymous]The quality of the basics taught in elementary school will determine future middle and high school success. What most parents don't realize is that the education provided in PG schools is at minimum standards, not even grade level. So, the longer your kid is in PG schools, the further behind they are. Private schools,usually teach 1-2 years ahead of grade level - to ensure that by the time standardized tests are given, students will be more successful. My kid took Algebra 1 in 7th grade and Geometry in 8th...Not because the kid is a genius, but because of the quality of the earlier education. I realize that private school is a stretch on family budgets...I sacrifice vacations, drive a used car, use coupons, etc, but my kid is excelling and educationally competitive with other students in schools in this area and around the country.
