[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm curious why PP applied/chose k-8 over k-12 when FA was a consideration. Did you only apply k-8 or were the FA offers not as good for K-12?[/quote] I am not the PP. But in my experience, the K-12 school dont give out FA to families starting in K. We got waitlisted at all K-12 schools we applied, and got accepted with FA in two K-8. I think the K-12 schools hand out FA for kids starting in high school more generously since those kids are already established as high achievers. A kid entering K is a big unknown in terms of potential. The schools don't want to gamble on a kid by giving out FA to those. Reputation of K-12 depends on college entrance. Reputation of K-8 schools depends on high school admissions. Those affect the FA decisions a lot.[/quote]
