[quote=Anonymous]At the local private schools, some amount of FA is received by about 1/4 of the entire student population (it's info on the schools' websites) -- so day to day, a kid's not going to know who in his or her class gets some amount of FA -- there are so many! So I'd agree with the posters who've said it doesn't matter much during the school day. After school, I agree that it has a lot more to do with a home's proximity to other classmates and what you like to do as after-school activities, weekend activities, and summer camps, etc. The best/closest friendships are formed outside of the classroom. Regarding the importance of parent friendships -- if the kids are in lower or maybe middle school, then perhaps some kids' friendships are occasionally encouraged by their parents' friendships, but the older kids are (and definitely by high school) there's much less linkage between parent and child friendships.
