[quote=Anonymous]We went private until 8th grade then went public, for both kids. Have been very helpful, privates at that young age were great at fostering curiousities, finding personal interests and teaching kids to speak. In addition to learning various subject matter. Teacher feedback was excellent, so was parent community. Loved that the sports were after school, at the school. hs was ready for larger environment, knew the soccer coach and kids already, large cohort of top kids (Whitman) so not a fishbowl environment. We let each daughter decide for herself to continue on in k-12 private or do nearby public. At that age the kids are all studying 3-4 hours a night, doing their sport or EC, and trying to have fun along the way. [/quote]
