[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not joining an elite private always has the ingredient of FOMO. We were rejected the first time and accepted the second time and then we moved to a much better school a third time. The lesson, it is much better strategy to be flexible and try several times to get the best school for your kid either public or private. Some elite private schools are overpriced, overrated, and parents are jerks as you can read in dcum posts. Others are absolutely perfect. But takes time to find the best match. [/quote] Disagree with "Others are absolutely perfect." No school is perfect, yes you can find a good match though- doesn't mean it will be perfect. It helps to go in with that mind set. Very happy with my kids' experience and education at private, and I'd send them there again even if it isn't perfect. I have friends with kids in lots of schools and people are much happier if they go in understanding it isn't going to be perfect. [/quote]
