[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some private school don't seem to welcome parents speaking with their teachers and/or classroom visits by parents. It almost feels if these schools are insulted that someone would question their program. We are surprised by the direction in which our decision may turn. Has anyone else turned down a prestigious name school for a magnet program (and cost is not a factor)? Would appreciate understanding your thought process.[/quote]

In the middle of that thought process right now!  It's very likely our DC will be accepted to a public magnet, and we wonder if we'll be prepared for the decision.  The private school is a "sure thing", yet the even playing field of public magnet is equally attractive.  I don't like the fact that so many great kids who would thrive at our private school just will never know the opportunity, and while values and world views start at home, don't want to be smug in feeling like part of the "1%", if the education is equal.  Anyone jumped the private ship and care to share?[/quote]
