[quote=Anonymous]Our kids went to a BCC cluster public for elementary because we figured why not just try the public first. They got a great educational foundation and made lots of friends in the neighborhood. We switched them to an independent K-12 in DC for middle school. By that time, we-- and they -- knew what they needed as learners and we could look for a school that would serve their needs. They all had a smooth transition and have done well in middle and high school. FWIW, my cousin, who teaches 5th-grade in a K-12 independent on the west coast, also started her kids in public for elementary before switching to private for high school. She advises people who ask her about this to do the same. [/quote]
