Show Notes:
I speak with a lot of parents who struggle over the decision to send their children to public or private high schools. Their struggle is well-founded. There are many factors to consider in this important decision.
This episode is also valuable to parents who already have children in high school because it uncovers insights based on the type of high school your child attends (private or public).
