[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to a Catholic high school and sent my child to a parochial MS rather than APS. Even so, we’re at W-L now and happy. The private middle school enrolled, and employed, few minorities and non-Catholics, far from ideal from our point of view. The students were too sheltered for our liking. The adjustment to W-L wasn’t easy, but we prefer to have the kid struggle a little to cope with the rough and tumble of moving in a larger world now than later on. He has some excellent teachers in intensified classes and nice friends from all sorts of backgrounds. [/quote] If you could do it again, would you make the same choice for middle school? I've heard APS middle school isn't great, and Catholic schools are less expensive as far as private goes. I did an IB program and would love for my kids to end up at WL.[/quote]
