[QUOTE="luvmyottb, post: 134423"] I am debating the same thing. My daughter is in private school right now, but is struggling academically. She is on her way to failing 4th grade. Our school provides extra reading help and after school tutoring for difficult child, but I am not sure if it will catch her up. I also pay for tutoring privately 2 hours a week. I like the smaller class size and sense of family within the school. But I can't get her teacher to reduce homework load which is large for her and sometimes just makes her snap. It can be too much. I have another conference with her teacher next week. I don't know what we will do or whether or not they will take her back next year. I like the religious aspect (Catholic school) and I feel difficult child needs God to lean on. The administration knows all the baggage she brings and have been super accomodating. I have been looking at public school, but then I am looking at middle school very soon and with over 900 kids, I think it will be a disaster for her. Her current school goes through 8th grade. Go with your heart...and make the most informed decision you can. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
