[quote=Anonymous]I don't know anything about Creative Minds (is it a language immersion school?), but as private school parent whose children get some financial aid and are in the middle and later grades, I would jump on this opportunity if I were you, assuming that you think the charter school is very good. It gets harder to leave any school as your child gets older. And if there's a second child in the mix for you later, it's even harder since you risk losing your financial aid if you pull one child out for public/charter but don't have a spot for the other. (Which is as it should be, but also makes it difficult for you to ever get back on solid financial footing.) I don't know how long your child has been in private school, but there is also no guarantee that your financial aid level will stay the same. We've had a couple of really unpleasant surprises, so despite loving the education my children are getting at the current school, we're looking for a way out. Good luck deciding. Tough one.[/quote]
