[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We chose public for the community, the larger number of extracurriculars, the better clubs and arts, many more class choices in my child’s field of interest and the knowledge that they would be better prepared and more realistic about the world when they got out. We also wanted to make sure they had a little debt as possible out of college and didn’t want debt to be a factor when choosing a college. A lot depends on your income, but had we gone private, we would not have had the ability to contribute much to college. We also wanted to do things like nice vacations while our kids were growing up, again if you have a greater cash flow these things won’t be an issue. Both my kids are in college now. I question my choices sometime because public school can have its problems, but my kids don’t. They know lots of kids who come from different educational backgrounds and they feel like they are much more prepared for real life. They both went to good school and Adjusted to college really well.
