[quote=Anonymous]I did exactly that. All my neighbors sent their kids to our neighborhood school. I thought I would feel the same as they did. I sent my kids there for 3 years. I was dubious after the first year, but thought I should give it another try. Compensated with instruction at home. Next year wasn't much better, but kids were "fine." Finally gave up in middle of 2nd grade and started looking to move. So kids stayed K-2. When you haven't ever had kids in any other school, sometimes it is hard to judge and figure out if the school is meeting their needs or not. But, I REALLY wanted to believe in my neighborhood school (it is one of the schools routinely discussed on here as having some major issues). Ultimately, we moved. I did not agree with my neighbors that the school was great but it took me a few years to accept that.[/quote]
