[quote=Anonymous]I'd say a kid who does not have special needs can get a great foundation in k-8 model and skip crazy middle school in public. By HS a regular kid can thrive in decent public plus nice outcomes. You'll know by then if they need a private for HS. Worked for our family for one kid, and he begged for public mostly because of his friend group even though he got into some great privates in our 8th-grade process. This was 5 years ago, admitted into top 20 school, and is doing fabulous. No hooks just a well-rounded, hard worker. I think IB track available at his school was also a great fit for him. Our other kid had special LD which we found out in 6th during our k-8 experience and is a whole other story because it should have been identified earlier. [/quote]
