[quote=Anonymous]Come on OP. There were reasons you put him in private, right? Many parents switch to private because the public school has a dumbed down curriculum, moves too slowly, relies on too much tech, has little homework or only requires writing a few sentences. I'm not sure about your situation, but considering this is a financial stretch, I imagine some of these reasons resonate and you're sending him to private because it's more rigorous. I don't know what "middling grades" means, but it sounds like he's not flunking or anything. Obviously homework is a must, but is this significantly more than he's had before? Couldn't it be he's not participating because he's new and feeling anxious? Don't add on more anxiety by making this about finances. That's totally unfair.[/quote]
