[quote=Anonymous]We have done both public and private- I will say private can give your kids experiences and activities that most publics cannot. This is a fact in our situation. Also, you can be and are encouraged to be involved in your child’s education and when they reach high school, the school works hard to develop that executive functioning and develop kids to be able to accomplish things outside of parent’s assistance. It is not totally full of rich, snobby kids talking about their money- there is a level of that - but we had that in our affluent public school too. I feel there was a higher level of dedicated attention given to my child in private school that could not be achieved in our public school system. We are middle class and receive aid and have sacrificed for our child to attend private school (college is funded) and I still feel it was the right choice. Especially during COVID when they remained in person after the mandatory shut down. If grandparents had paid, it would have made that much more of a difference. [/quote]
