[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sent kids to big3 in 9th from publics. Not academically “behind” at all; academics really load up in US and big jump for lifers. Kids college outcomes were excellent. We made the choice for each school - ES, MS, HS - based on our assessment of best educational and social/emotional opportunities for our kids and not the finances (which I know the private lifers will scoff at but whatever, we did). Neighborhood schools in our specific situation were a real advantage that we took advantage of. Spread out lifers over larger geography at a private school with more limited friend options (given small classes) wasn’t ideal for our kids in elementary and middle. [/quote] Private lifer here to say na, not scoffing, we did the same we just didn't get into our lottery choice and we did get into our number 1 private school choice. [/quote]
