[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To those that send kids to private, why did you choose to do so? Is the education actually better (not fancier, but better)? How are your local public schools? We wrestled with this and chose to buy in an excellent public district because we thought there would be less privilege and entitlement (not sure it actually worked out that way). Now we have a SN child so may end up in private anyway.[/quote] Our DC was unhappy in public and hated school. Scores off the charts on standardized tests but underperforming academically. Did not get into HGC so after watching him go steadily downhill we finally put him in private and now he LOVES school. The individual attention, small class sizes and relationship with teachers plus mandatory sports and daily outside recess with lots of breaks is a more humane approach to education.[/quote]
