[quote=Anonymous]Being surrounded by other kids who are motivated to learn is a big plus of going to private high school. I personally don't want my child exposed to kids who are either lazy, unmotivated, distracted by girls, or just incapable of excelling. My DS, who went to MCPS through middle school, now attends an all boys high school. Most of his classmates are super bright and high achievers, and I have never seen him so motivated to get good grades. It is really nice to watch him grow and mature into a young man who wants to succeed. I know that would not have been the case if he stayed in public...I see his public school friends...and they have way too much free time on their hands to play video games and just be lazy.[/quote]
