[quote=Anonymous]I was a lifer at another city private school in the time horizon you mentioned. Of my 10 close friends, half of them are friends from when I was in elementary school and the other half are from college. It's true that you can't totally game friendships as other posters have mentioned. But I disagree with the premise that it's a stupid reason to consider applying for elementary school, among all the other factors. These lifelong friends have been an immeasurable gift, and I would be so happy if my child got to experience the same. And for what it's worth I don't think the lifers at my school were exclusionary, and I made new friends as people joined at entry years, but it's interesting that decades later the ones I am closest with are the oldest.
