[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sometimes it might be a good strategy to apply to a k-8 for sixth. They receive fewer applications for 6th than the k-12s and sometimes have openings from their own students who decide to move on then or transition to public school. Plus, you can get the benefit of the k-8 helping with outplacement once your child reaches 8th grade. It's not as ideal as going straight into a k-12 but it will provide a nice environment for your child for three years until it's time to apply to high school.[/quote] Agree that the right K-8 can be an excellent option, but if your kid starts in 6th, the process for starting to be ready for HS applications will begin much sooner than you expect.
