[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get parents who won't at least try public schools in their area if they are supposed to be good. We moved to MCPS from another state where we were in a small private. I have learned that one of my kids absolutely thrives in a large public school environment. The other we're not sure about but so far so good. We are open to private for her but how can you not give it a try.[/quote] I agree that barring any particular issues, it makes sense to try public. But if you know your kid does better in small classes, or needs a certain amount of active play every day then while I still recommend checking with your public school first, I don't think you need to put your kid in a situation where you're pretty sure they're going to fail before putting them into an environment that's more appropriate for them.[/quote]
