[quote=Anonymous]My sons went to a one class per grade K-8. They are in college. It surprises me to see how other families don't have the "got your back" mentality that comes with a small community. I made a joke about a field trip where my kid forgot his lunch and a dad bought him lunch with his money. He said "Your mom would do the same for mine, so you don't have to pay me back," and this came up when we were organizing a dorm room move out. The parents did not help each other out and where very "stay in my lane", like "I cleaned my 8X10 space. The rest is your problem,". The contrast to the way our small school sees it that every child matters and we help each other (even if the kids are not best friends) is palpable. [/quote]
