[quote=Anonymous]Grandparents offered to pay 100% for private as they did for my siblings two kids. We are sticking with a dcps public for now because it’s fun to have friends in the neighborhood and I want my kid to feel like she’s part of the community. My friends who went to private got a great academic education but are sort of scared of anyone who is not as wealthy. Plus they’re very anxious and disappointed if they can’t send their own kids to privates. I want my kid to understand that public is a totally acceptable option and that school is what you make of it. She takes advantage of everything her not-well-regarded DC public school has to offer. Maybe we will make a different decision for high school, but for now, the trade off with public works for us. [/quote]
