[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know the answer to this will differ a bit from every family, but is Allen-Stevenson really "worth it" compared to schools like Trinity, Dalton, Collegiate, Horace Mann, in terms of the education and how they set the children up for later in life?[/quote] It's a K-8, so when it's time for HS you get to reevaluate what kind of school is a good fit for your child. "Worth it" depends on your financial situation and other school options. My DCs went to a progressive K-8 and then onto Spence and Horace Mann, respectively, for HS. It was "worth it" because they both had a wonderful experience in their early school years, and if I had to go back I'd make the same choices for them. I don't think they were at any disadvantage not attending the same school from K-12, and it's quite common for kids who start out at those schools to end up elsewhere along the way.[/quote]
