[quote=Anonymous]Some of us send our kids to private because they are for certain with folks who chose to value education given the price tag. We all know that who you are friends with and work with shapes who you are and what you aspire to. Some of us chose private as it underscores religious beliefs we as parents profess. Some (looking at you DCPS) don’t want our kids walking though metal detectors, or in overcrowded classrooms. I don’t know that the experimental “testing optional” will work out. I dont know that the other aspects of life that weaken a child’s performance in school won’t carry to college. But what I do know is that I am giving my child the best education - which is about values and work ethic and yes, academic rigor - that I could afford. [/quote]
