[quote=Anonymous]Go to the school that is the best fit for your kid even if they have the stats or whatever to gain admittance at a “more prestigious” school. All schools have good and bad—no place is perfect. The prestige factor is DCUM bs. DS had options and people could not believe the schools we turned down, but the more we dug into what the day to day would look like, we had a stronger sense of why the DCUM deemed “lesser” school would be a better fit. The real trick is being confident in that decision, tuning out those who question your decision, and resisting the urge to think the options you turned down would have been better the moment you encounter something you don’t love at your school of choice.
