[quote=Anonymous]I haven't read the whole thread. I agree with some of your premises, but not all. I think I agree with your idea of seeking out a good high school. In most decent districts, the elementary schools are great. It's in junior high and high school where you see the flaws. Some districts are too big, too chaotic, have bad leadership, etc. So, sure, look for good high schools. I would add SIZE as a determining factor. My kids' district is simply too big. It's a mess. Great Schools is trash ... don't worry about it. I would read the local papers and talk to lots and lots of friends and acquaintances about what they like about their kids' schools. You still have to be careful about that. Some people will complain about anything, while some are a little pollyannaish. But over time, you can get to know some overarching information. [/quote]
