[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most of the privates are not better than APS, and the Catholic schools definitely aren't (and DH went to Catholic schools). For example, I'd never send my kid to O'Connell over Yorktown. The only time private is worth paying for is in high school, where you get better college counseling and an admissions bump for many higher ranked schools. But it's only worth it to pay for the better privates like Sidwell, NCS/STA, GDS, Holton, Maret, Potomac. FYI, as a Virginia family, your geographic diversity is a positive for the DC/MD schools. Middle school for both privates and publics is always mess because kids that age are a mess. [/quote] Disagree completely the privates are way better than APS. Individualized learning classes bursting at the seams. Sorry but unless it’s IB APS is sinking[/quote]
