[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Private schools by and large or a complete waste of money if the public school system is halfway decent or more and the parents stay involved.  It all starts in the home.  [/quote]

Normally I would agree and that’s why we never pursued private in the first place. However, with school now only being open 2 days a week, I feel that anything that is 5 days must be better.

I don’t feel confident that public will be open fully next year. Kids 12 and under won’t be vaccinated. We know this for sure. So that’s a big problem for elementary school.  I don’t even know how they will be able to open the middle school completely since it includes sixth grade and kids under 12. Won’t they continue to say hybrid is needed for social distancing?[/quote]

So you're one of those rabidly pro-in-person people, OP?

You're actually willing to severely disrupt your financial ecosystem in the mistaken belief that in-person for an extra half-year, or whatever it will be, is worth it, even though instruction from a dubious private might be subpar compared to the public school?

I don't know what to tell you. You've got the ideal situation here with tutoring. No private school will give you what you have right now.

I don’t know where you are getting that I am rabid about anything g.

Yes I worry about the effect on my kids of only school days a week for 2 years. Who wouldn’t?! Esp if you know for a fact you can afford something better.

I genuinely don’t understand why he doesn’t worry about this.[/quote]

Because many of us understand that virtual is fine.

More days in person is not better if the instruction isn’t as good, or if means there is more viral spread or if you’re not in good financial shape for it.

You husband is one of millions who don’t worry about it! There is nothing to worry about if your public is good.
