[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have one in both. There are pros and cons to both public and private. A lot depends on the kid and his needs. Some kids need a smaller environment to thrive. Others don’t and benefit from the broader course selection in public. Only you and your child can answer which is the better fit.[/quote] I’ve never heard of a broader course selection in public. The private school where your DC is must be a very small school if it has fewer courses than public. Our private has many more courses to choose from than any public school in the county.[/quote] Be careful when you think that. When we toured SFS with your older kid for 9th grade we asked the tour guide about all these cool Math / STEM classes that were posted online. His response was most of the classes we referenced are only offered if enough kids want them and that many had not been actually been offered in many years.[/quote] Our older kid...sorry.[/quote]
