[quote=Anonymous]I agree w everything PP, we also made the switch from a strong ES to private in lower school. Because public’s spending about double the time on math and reading than play based privates they are ahead there until 5 th or 6th grade when things get more academic at privates. We switched for sports purposes and wanted a smaller middle school that ours, grade size wise. So went in with 3rd grade intake. I’d echo having the ECs at the school is much easier than driving multiple kids around at 3pm every day. More days off in private. Shorter days at school and about 8-10 less yearly days of school. Community great in both our public and private. Our neighborhood is about 2/3, 1/3 and all swim on same summer team. [/quote]
