[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Nysmith isn't [b]JUST[/b] for app rejected kids. There are kids like mine that chose to leave AAP to go Nysmith because we can afford it and want the smaller class size and more individualized attention, and I loath the outside tutoring culture in our AAP center.[/quote] More power to you but there is a lot of tutoring that can come from $32,000 a year. [/quote] PP might not want her kid doing extra hours of tutoring on top of school, though. For my part, there's a huge difference between "can afford" and "find it trivial to afford" private school. I technically can afford private, but it's wiser for me to just put the extra money into enrichment and college funds. If I were much wealthier and found the tuition trivial, I'd be making different choices. Even if Nysmith were better than AAP, it's not $32,000 better per year per kid for me. [/quote]
