[quote=Anonymous]We didn't choose to send DS to private K-8 or private HS for better college matriculation. He's a sophomore, so time will tell on that. Our decision was for smaller class size and a more intimate environment for social relationships. It's been home run on those elements so far. He has a lot more confidence and been more engaged in his learning than either my husband or I (we went to large public schools from K-12). So it really depends on what you are focused on. If it's college outcomes, than ask about the private schools matriculation data. We looked at ours, but were less interested in that. The learning, social and study skills you develop K-12 were a bigger factor for us than college matriculation results, although our HS is pretty competitive on that front too.[/quote]
