[quote=Anonymous]This is all about everyone justifying THEIR choices which nobody should do or worry about. I don't even tell people my kid is applying to private HS because of the judgmental people that have to weigh in on why it is a stupid idea. I found,after telling one person when she asked if my kid was going to attend our public HS that he was applying to private HS, people get very weird about it. They make your choice about them. They think you are saying the public school is no good or not good enough for your kid. Then, inevitably comes the blanket statement that there are drugs there or something else. WTF? I don't bash the public HS. My kids went to public school K-8. My husband and I attended public K-12. I know the academics are sold at our HS. That is not the primary reason we are choosing to go private for HS. As other pps have noted, many things change when schools reach a certain tipping point in numbers. [/quote]
