[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An honest answer that is both kind of lame and incredibly privileged: [b]one reason we pay for private is because we both work busy, stressful jobs and I don’t want to dedicate the time needed navigate the public school system. [/b]Privates make it so easy to know what is going on at school and in the community, which is a time saver/stress reliever. I get to spend my school thinking hours on my kid and not the system. Another reason is that most privates offer on site extended day while our PS district busses kids to a YMCA *if* there is space. I don’t have to navigate waitlists and juggle after care options. Similarly ours offers summer camps with first come sign ups to students. That’s a huge benefit to the ease of our daily lives. [/quote] This is us too. I keep light tabs but I feel confident they are getting a great education and I don’t have to stress about things or get involved.[/quote]
