[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I started a private high school in 9th with so many lifers (not in DC, so more lifers because fewer privates) and my best friends are all from high school.

I don’t think you can game it. Just do what you think is best for your kids. Personally as someone who has a lower school child in private, I would not start in K. I would start in public until it doesn’t work for your child. Save your money until then because $50-$60K to start in K is a lot. [/quote]

Kids turn out differently when you start in public elementary rather than private.  Different classmates, different learned behaviors, different experiences.  These shape kids.  For example, at our public elementary kids are kicking each other when teacher isn’t looking starting in first grade.  30 kids in a class with about 5 very disruptive ones.  At what point does public no longer work?  Even K would not be acceptable to me.[/quote]

Okay? That’s clearly not what OP described of her school situation. Try to stay on topic.[/quote]

Try to keep up.  It was a direct response to the prior comment in the thread.  Your comment was the only one off topic and makes you sound like a twat.  If you have trouble making friends in life, do some self reflection because it is obvious to everyone else why.[/quote]

Such an unhinged comment.
