[quote=Anonymous]I think there is so much more to this them class sizes. For young children, where it's important to be comfortable and secure and have an accessible adult, larger classes might be intimidating or negatively impact a shy, sensitive, or awkward child. At this age, I am less concerned about academic impact, but the peers and behavioral environment of the room does matter. For older children who are academically motivated and surrounded by a lot of peers who are at a similar level, in a classroom with few behavioral or managerial issues, 34 could be fine. It just depends on so many things. That said, we moved to a district where we are zoned for a public school with small classes, because I think that fits my child's personality best.[/quote]
