[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sandy Spring Friends School still has openings in some grades, if Maryland is an option. [b]Public not an option usually means that the public school the kid is zoned for is sub par[/b], and the kid lost the charter lottery. Happened to us in PG county. And also with PG, often the housing market hasn't recovered from the crash and people can still be underwater on mortgages and unable to sell and move. That was our situation when starting Pre K. And it could also mean the kid has needs that the local public, because it is already dealing with high needs kids or is sub par generally, will not be able to meet well...ADHD, dyslexia, etc. etc.[/quote]It's not always that a school is sub par. We are in MC, and the school didn't offer some of the advanced classes that DC would eventually need. Those needs were met at the private school. If you don't live in a certain district, it is almost impossible to go to another public in another district.[/quote]
