[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was applying for K I sort of thought it was all or nothing.

Now I realize that so many people after a few years realize their children's personality and learning styles and move, adjust, etc.

My children did k-3 in one school, 4- middle in another school and will probably go to a different high school.

People move from private to public, public to private, private to private, public to public, etc.

You can only make the best decision you can when choosing a school for somebody going into K because really you are going on so little information.

I didn't think people thought that far into the future?! How could anyone know what your child will be like 10 years from now? Maybe I am too short-sighted? [/quote]

The school we originally attended was K-8 so that is 9 years. We left in 3rd. Our current school goes up through 12th so that is 10 years.

My point is no  I can't plan 10 years of my kids life in one choice of schoo. I did not choose the 2nd school thinking we will go through 12th. I actually evaluate each year when is a good time to maybe switch or move. Maybe in HS so go 3-8, 6 years and try somthing else for HS. I like the change and seeing how different each school is, but I would not want to change just to change it would have to fit our needs.[/quote]
