[quote=Anonymous]We considered private high school, but it would have been a financial stretch, so we sent our child to Walls. Adults have been amazed at how savvy my child is -- from navigating bureaucracies to navigating public transit -- and that's showing early signs of paying off when it comes to internships and college interest. At first I felt guilty that we couldn't afford to give them the amenities of the top private schools, but I realize now that you learn a lot of valuable life skills in public school. My kid has a lot of exposure to private school kids, and I don't think they're missing out. So don't feel guilty, OP, if you can't afford private. But I'd recommend a magnet school if that's available to you. Kind of like the best of both worlds.[/quote]
