[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Middle school. Go private.[/quote] Middle school Go public. And I say this as someone who pulled my daughter out of private school.[/quote] Middle school is where kids either go forward or backward. For middle school and for most kids that aren't learning disabled or impaired, a disciplined environment with order, coat and tie or uniform ,class ranking and low student/teacher ratio is probably the greatest investment you could ever make in your kids future.[/quote] nope Sheltering them at this stage w/o helping them learn how to deal with differences, obstacles, academic pressures and societal pressures is THE WORST thing you could do to a child at this age. Private keeps them in a bubble. I talk from experience - as a parent who pulled a child from a private school, as a person who attended both public and private schools, and as an educator in the public system. [/quote]
