[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s totally a private school thing and it’s bizarre. When public school parents look for schools they only care about the quality and reputation of the school itself. They don’t give a shit about the parents because they have no plan to have anything to do with them. They have their own happy and productive lives and friends. Private school parents approach the decision like they’re joining a country club. To them it’s all about the “community”—meaning are the families rich and special and exclusive enough for me to associate with? So weird. [/quote] We’ve done both. In general, I think you are correct if we are just talking about HS. But you only need to look at the many threads on the public school boards to see parents are interested in the community at their kids ES/MS. These parents know that having some degree of parental involvement in the lower grades is important. [/quote]
