[quote=Anonymous]We chose public for K-5 despite being able to "afford" private and have been very happy with our choice. However, we're now exploring (and applying) to private middle school and we're finding that it's not easy to get a spot despite having a kid with top grades and very strong extracurriculars. For most people, choosing public over private is not a choice (especially at the top privates that get talked about on here. My kid will likely be in public middle school (which is fine) because she/he isn't in the lucky 10% of kids who get admitted at these schools. It's basically a lottery at most. Not a choice. [/quote]
