[quote=Anonymous]OP, with the HS you mentioned wanting later on, I’d only go K8 if you are okay with your public option too. They talk a good game about “best fit” exmissions at K8s but there are no guarantees unless you are a huge donor or legacy/sibling applicant, or have a big hook for 9th grade. If you have a very smart kid I’d apply to k-12 schools too so perhaps you have those choices. It isn’t fun watching less qualified applicants from a K8 get in for 9th at your kids’ first and second (and maybe even third choice)--just because they are legacy and your kids are not. But it really does happen, and not infrequently. The schools will not say this at admissions events. [/quote]
