[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think you can pay for private for one and suboptimal public for the other.  [/quote]

OP here. I agree. It would have to be her choice, and there would have to be some form of compensation to even things out.[/quote]

She is a kid.  Be careful about letting her make the choice since she could have some preferences reflecting her immaturity. She can choose from among legit options.  Suboptimal public is not one, even with tutors. My kid is currently refusing to be tutored in a subject where he needs it and that is not uncommon.

She should only get to choose among legit options.

This, a bad middle can really miss a kid up for life.  You need to take the public middle school off the table.  [/quote]

Just curious, but why do you say a bad middle school can "mess a kid up for life"?  Do you mean that the kid could fall into a bad peer group and veer off onto a different path, or are you referring to academics?  If academics, obviously a bad middle is not desirable, but why would it "mess them up for life?"[/quote]
