[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Disillusionment with “great” publics is why we are at a private. [/quote]

Same. We started at a top notch private, followed conventional wisdom and moved to the most expensive zip code so that we could send our kids to great public schools. Simply, the only thing great was the level of disappointment in the quality of education and how over burdened the public school system is. It was awful. Over the weekend, we dropped our oldest off at boarding school and am currently making plans to send the younger DC's back to private next fall.[/quote]

Story of our life. When the so called highest rated school has the worst front office/administration and not even basic etiquette to acknowledge emails from parents. We pulled out twins back to private and the email sent to the registrar/principal about pulling the kids out from school was not even acknowledged !!! [/quote]

You're the OP on the other thread, right?

How long has it been since you sent the email?   And what did you want them to say?  Once you withdraw, the school's job is very functional -- take your kids out of the system rolls.  What more should they say?  They don't have any feeling one way or the other about whether your child stays in that school or not.   They aren't going to say "we're so sorry to see you go."  So, what exactly did you want them to say?  You made your withdrawal.  They took the necessary action.  And???[/quote]

Different OP.  Please do try to keep up.[/quote]
