[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cold Spring - 13 in 4th, 11 in 2nd.  Glorious.  [/quote]

Not so glorious from a social perspective when your kid doesn't have anything in common with the other kids in their class and there's not many to choose from i.e. if you're a boy then there are only around 5 other boys in the class. Or when there's only one teacher who teaches a grade level and he/she may be a terrible fit style wise for your kid.  My friend had that exact issue at Cold Spring and her kid was miserable. She moved to an area with a school that isn't underpopulated before her second kid started Kindergarten and they're much happier now. [/quote]

Oh please.  The best private schools have those type of ratios and it is great.  The grades will eat and play at recess all together so there are plenty of friends.  And school isn't social hour and you can't request teachers anyway.  [/quote]

I can see how a kid can be miserable in a class that is very small.  For private schools, teachers are can be fired a lot easily.  At our MCPS school, there are a couple of teachers who are just notoriously BAD -- think you tubing in school, playing video games, not at all organize, and yelling at kids.  The school just ends up moving them to different classes but can't seem to fire them.  [/quote]
