[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Only if I were rich enough not to feel it, and only if my child were accepted to one of a handful of top private schools in the DMV. That is, I think GDS or SFS are probably better than the education my child is getting in an MCPS magnet, but not by enough to sacrifice college tuition or retirement. Most other privates, though? No, I think my kids are better served in MCPS. [/quote] The achievements of students in programs like Blair's SMCS are so much higher than privates like GDS or Sidwell that I can't see the value.[/quote] DP but are we only looking at this in terms of achievements? My kids attend MCPS, but I definitely envy private education for what I perceive as the superior training in writing and public speaking. [/quote]
