[quote=Anonymous]My spouse and I are both private school educators. For the last 15 years, as birth rates decline, and now with out-migration of tbe wealthy, we notice the families choosing private are those with special needs. Sometimes documented, sometimes not, but it’s clear they want something very specific from their school. Parents usually say it in a veiled way like: -we just wanted a better fit for our child socially -we prefer smaller class sizes -my kid needs more time to run around and burn their energy -we want our kid to get all of their HW done in study halls during the day so they can be in multiple travel sports -we are willing to donate money for this cause that benefits my kid specifically [/quote]
