[quote=Anonymous]Good question. I'm not sure about elementary. I went to a crappy elementary and then got stuck into a middling private for middle, and a top public high school. Even at a mediocre private, I felt years and years behind. It also really jaded me and killed my motivation and self worth, because I had no idea kids like me existed in such large numbers. So I'm glad I switched because it opened new worlds.... but I guess I wish I had switched sooner. We are grappling with the same question for my son who is in elementary. We plan to switch him to a parochial school. Higher standards for both academics and behavior, and hopefully families with similar values and drive.[/quote]
