[quote=Anonymous]What are her reasons? Does she think the education is better? If so, ask to sit in on classes and see what you think. Does she prefer the class size? Is your son too distracted by girls? Do you think he would be more confident in an all boy environment? St. Albans is an excellent school. As a product of private school myself I would say one "con" is you are surrounded by really wealthy kids and you can get a warped perspective. Yes, McLean is a wealthy area, but you have more of a range of incomes and lifestyles than you see at private school. I remember feeling sorry for myself because mom and dad didn't buy me a car or get me the coolest whatever. I got over that doing volunteer work.[/quote]
