[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I imagine this will be more the case at less competitive and less expensive schools (parochial, for example). [/quote] Why? They are getting bigger bang for the buck. The more pricey schools are probably not worth it for many people with limited funds, especially if they are already in a "good" school district.[/quote] It is the reverse. The pricey ones are a big difference from public, the less expensive not so much except for class size, and the teachers can be far less qualified at either compared to public. [/quote] Exactly...the schools around $40K are dramatically different than a public school...the ones around $20K not so much[/quote] We had a "pilot child" at a 15K school, but are sending all of them next year because the differences between the local public -- highly performing, based on its test scores -- and the private are staggering.[/quote] Can you elaborate on what made you so happy with your decision?[/quote]
