[quote=Anonymous]Because you will be keeping the older child in private, do not wait until April 30 to tell your current school you are thinking of leaving. I understand the temptation to wait in case you decide to stay. But you should send an email now saying you are reviewing the financial commitment and you are not sure all your children will be able to attend next year. Do not blindside the admissions team. At least give them a heads up now and try to tell them your final decision before April 30. The admissions team completely understands the massive financial commitment and the shifting sands of this economy. They will not resent you for enrolling one or more of your kids in public. They will resent you if you don’t tell them anything until April 30 and then they have trouble pulling from waitlist because all the WL people are contracted with other schools. [/quote]
