[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems like unless you are destitute or rich, you aren’t getting your kid into private school unless s/ he is utterly amazing, right? My DD was a strong candidate but I’m sure there were better. And I think our SES worked against us. This happens to us everywhere. Had to pull out from rec soccer because we can’t afford it but don’t qualify on paper for any financial aid. Yet some months I have to severely limit Grocery shopping and can barely make bills. There’s no way to get ahead for the middle class. [/quote] Maybe your "strong candidate" DD will do well in a public school. Maybe she is so awesome that she will be fine in almost any school, public or private. I know my kids will be fine in almost anywhere. They are in DCPS right now and very happy. They will see the private school kids in college and all is well. [/quote]
