[quote=Anonymous]In my experience (having had kids in both) the only reason to use private elementary school vs. your JKLM public option in NW DC is -you have enough money that $35K a year means very little -your child has special needs. Otherwise, the public experience is about 90-95% of the private one. And the private schools themselves agree because they take these kids coming from DCPS for middle or high school all the time. Kids are admitted to Sidwell and GDS (etc) from Janney, Mann, Deal, etc and they transition seamlessly. [/quote]
