[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would any PP's answer change if the choice was between an EOTP elementary and an independent private school? [/quote] I think it depends--there is a wide range in terms of test scores and other factors in play at EOTP schools. We recently switched our early elem. child from an EOTP Deal/Wilson feeder to private--however, it was for language immersion. For us, small class sizes were not a factor in considering private--child had class sizes of 14-16 students PK3-K at IB school. Class sizes are larger (20-24 students) at the private. We do like that there's more recess time--once per day at IB school, vs. 4x/day at private. I wholeheartedly agree with others that there are a lot of pros to a neighborhood school. If it were not for the language immersion aspect, we would have happily stayed with our IB. [/quote]
