[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]The cost is worth it in MS or HS, not elementary school. [/b] We went from public JKLM to private MS.[/quote] [b]True, but you can't expect to go from JKLM to private in one jump at MS[/b]. Maybe an independent that isn't "Big 3" or parochial but there's just nothing to make even a great kid stand out. They're almost better off coming from EOTP with anything that gives the admissions committee a reason for a second look.[/quote] Huh? Dozens of kids do this every year...[/quote] Not Big 3 they don't. Read the link upthread.[/quote] http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/709133.page "applying to private school from DCPS isn't easy; my advice: if you want to move, do it early on"[/quote] I'd suggest reading the whole thread. There's not much evidence to support the OP's conclusion based on her one kid (or even the anecdotal account of a few peers).[/quote]
