[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are at a public that we have been at for years and have worked hard on, along with our neighbors.  We've grown close to other families, served on committees, hung out on the weekends, etc.  It's a great school in many ways, with many great families, but we are now thinking of moving to private.  Our child was accepted to first choice school which offers a different approach not available at our public, and which we think will be a good fit for child.

My question is: when and how do you tell other public school families that you're leaving the school?  Is right away best, end of the school year, etc?  W/o outing ourselves, I think that a few families will be surprised, disappointed, maybe even angry at first.  I'd love to tell them in person, but it seems that may be impractical (assuming words spread before we can speak with everyone we'd like to tell in person).  Hoping for some folks who have BTDT.[/quote]

You sound like an incredible A-hole, so I would let everyone know. It's the probably the first good news they've heard in a while. Don't let the door hit ya, where to good Lord split ya.[/quote]
