Agree with everything you wrote and especially the last sentence. However, I think that you left something out. It is because kids will learn more in social settings that the school that they go to actually will matter. Calculus is calculus everywhere, but the peers that your son/daughter will encounter and be shaped by can vary greatly school to school. Not saying that the peers at one school are better or worse than those at another...just that they are different and the difference is something to consider when choosing a school.
