What cluster in Anne Arundel are you in? Private school culture varies wildly from cluster to cluster in AACo.

My kid went from Aacps to a k-8 school in 6th grade, and he had multiple options. You shouldn’t have any problem finding a spot for your child for middle school. The Anne Arundel private school scene isn’t remotely like what you’ll read here about dc, and at least our Aacps school did a ton of fun stuff in spring of 5th grade that he would have been sad to miss.

My kids are all in early elementary and pre-k. Happy with with the local public elementary school. Middle school has real problems, which I’ve heard about firsthand from parents, teachers, and recent students.

Should I move kids to private sooner rather than later to help chances for middle schools? Or can I wait until 6th grade to make the switch? Friends are all in DC or other areas where there is pressure to go private as early as possible.
