[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids go to public school, have friends that go to public school as well. And they are happy because they are in school with their friends. If that wasn’t working for them we would find another option, but I would never disrupt my kids’ lives just to send them to a “better” school.[/quote] Especially if the "better school" is not close by. Imagine what MS/HS is like if the school is 45 mins from your house, and all the students are spread out (or closer to the school). For your 9th grader to see friends/hang out, someone will be driving them 45min to an hour and then picking them up. Makes a social life much more challenging. So seriously consider if it really is the best thing for your kid (many times it simply isn't). Kids do better in school when they are happier overall, much of the learning attitudes come from home, so unless your schools are dangerous and really bad, it's often not worth it [/quote]
