[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pull him out. Our Big 3 made college acceptances much harder than if ours had stayed in public.[/quote] No one sends their kid to a private school because they think it is an expressway to an ivy League school. If you wanted that, then move to Arkansas. That said, if the kid doesn't value the opportunity for a great education, then there is no reason to spend the money on it. Middle School is too young to make that evaluation, IMO. I would explain to the kid that the opportunity to attend this school is special, and if they don't value it, then the local public is a fine option and they will demonstrate over their Freshman year whether they want to be there or not.[/quote]
