[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In our W neighborhood probably about 1/3 of the kids go to private. A large percentage were struggling in public for one reason or another. Many are quirky and could not deal socially with the big competitive environment of public schools and others were having trouble being motivated academically. I can think of only a handful of popular well adjusted kids who are A students who decided to go to private even for 9th.[/quote]

Well in my Churchill zoned neighborhood, most go to public.  The only ones who are in private are because of religious choice (that's us) or those going to privates like McLean School or Lab School for significant learning differences.  However, with my daughter being in private, we find that her classmates live in much more affluent neighborhoods like Avenel and areas Chevy Chase and Bethesda.  [b]So I am guessing that people in our neighborhood stayed in mcps because they just couldn't swing the tuition or wanted to use that extra money for cars and vacations.[/b][/quote]

You sound dumb and whiny. I’m a private school parent and I hate when people private school parents in the private school forum say this. The public school parents just made a different choice than you - by choice or by no choice.  You sound like an unemployed mom with absolutely nothing to do and who is resentful that your neighbors live a much nicer life than you because they aren’t paying for private school. [/quote]

That poster was not "whiny" at all. You sound very defensive.[/quote]
