[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the poster you quoted. Before entering private school our children were never tutored. They participated in the same kinds of activities that their private school classmates participated in -- e.g., music lessons, sports, ballet -- nothing exotic, I can assure you. I've also never seen a kid enter private at 9th and flunk out. Very few kids leave after 9th unless due to a family move or disciplinary reasons. [/quote] You're talking about your children, I'm talking about a broader pool of applicants from different school environments. Just because you have never seen a kid flunk out after 9th grade from private doesn't mean that it just doesn't happen. Yes, some families move away, some students are expelled, and some flunk out.[/quote]
