[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If doing very well in private, why heck would you throw the kid in public school - and for the first time in high school no less? Sounds rough. I'd stay put with your kids cohort of friends and go to O'Connell if that's where they are all going. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Asking for trouble[/quote] This was put to OP earlier and she said his private school classmates were mostly heading to a bunch of different public schools for HS. [/quote] I don't doubt it, our DD is at a catholic K-8, but, I'd be on top of whether any friend is going to O'Connell. If feasible, I'd go there. Especially if the student is only average academically. While cream rises to the top at public, other outcomes from public parents I hear a lot are community college or technical school plans.[/quote]
