[quote=Anonymous]Our DC was at private, but we moved him to public in 2nd, when we moved to the area. He was very reluctant to join in groups, and was definitely an observer. We fretted because there were a 100 kids at grade level, and I watched him like a hawk because I was afraid he'd get lost. But, he made friends immediately. It probably helped that the school community is fantastic, and we all enjoyed being welcomed by it. You're right that the biggest difference btwn private and public is hand holding. It was clear from the beginning, but he seemed to relish the independence. And, still does. If you are confident about your choice, kids pick that up and trust in your choice for them. GL. [/quote]
