[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I think some people end up being so pleasantly surprised at how good their ES is that they just can't believe it[/b]. Therefore, they automatically believe that no other ES could possibly be as good as theirs because they can't believe theirs is so good. And, they don't have any experience with any of the others, so they just don't realize that some others are really good too.

Those people are counterbalanced by those for whom no school will ever be good enough.[/quote]

I think the bold is true, but I for one, wanted a tried and true excellent school. Meaning, I was not willing to send my kid to Hearst, for example, because I wasn't comfortable with a school that shows 1/3 of the school at basic or below basic reading levels. We chose a school with less than half that figure.

That said, had our kid ended up at Hearst I am sure they would have been fine - but when you are in a position to have the choice of any of these schools it's reasonable for people like OP to look for the differences, whatever they may be. [/quote]

You sound like a jewel of an individual.  I'm sure your school community is so glad to have you as part of the family.[/quote]
