[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought that the problem the Barnesville School is that it's a long way from where most people in the county live, and almost everybody in the immediate area sends their children to public school. No? Where do people who send their children to the Barnesville School live?[/quote]

OP here again.  Yes, if I were listing summary upsides and downsides for each school, the big downside for us re Barnesville was distance.  It's actually why we didn't include it on our first round of visits the previous year (which resulted in our not finding a match among the other schools).

Having said that, in terms of driving time Barnesville is no further for us than Norwood or St. Andrews lower school in the other direction.  And it's a lower-stress drive, so ultimately this ceased to be a big issue for us.  There are other schools on this list that would have been more convenient location-wise (Christ Episcopal, Charles E. Smith, e.g.), but ultimately we went with the closest match for our educational priorities, and are glad we did. [/quote]
