[quote=Anonymous]This is one of the reasons we decided to send our son to private for middle school. Quiet kid, gets good grades. He commented to me that he doesn't think his teachers know him because they never say anything, good or bad, to him. He's totally fine flying under the radar, but I want him to feel known, to feel like he's contributing in a meaningful way, to be forced to leave his comfort zone. This is not the only reason we are sending him, but I see it as a benefit for sure. And I think it's important to give your kids what they need, which may not be the same thing for each. Our second child is staying in public for now because public can give him what he needs and paying for both at the same time would be a hardship for our family.[/quote]
