[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Public schools give me the ick[/quote] Wow[/quote] I get this even if I wouldn’t use the word “ick.” We toured our neighborhood elementary school. It felt cold, institutional, chaotic, the playground and facilities were tired and I left feeling sad at the thought of sending my rising kindergartner there every day. The private school we chose instead had such a warm and joyful feeling in contrast. There are several other differences that made private the clear choice, but going just off the feeling I got by visiting, the public school left me feeling kind of sad and the privates we applied to have me a feeling of warmth and happiness. My kids are now in high school and we never thought about moving them to public after that initial tour. [/quote]
