[quote=Anonymous]Our child loved his time at elementary private ... he went K thru 5. He is now doing well at public middle and unless something dramatic changes, we plan to continue with public high school. The money for private was extremely high, and in retrospect, I think we mostly purchased a nice experience for him rather than better academics. The campus was nicer, the small community was nurturing and cozy, the specials and field trips were nicer, and so on. But the actual learning was fine but not anything he wouldn't have gotten at the neighborhood school. So we are pleased that he had such a nice experience that he will look back on fondly, but if I knew then what I know now, I probably would not have paid over $130,000 for it. It very much depends on what your alternative would have been, of course.[/quote]
