They had a tornado watch for 24 hours before the storm that actually predicted when it would likely hit down to the hour, and then some form of tornado warning for half an hour, and then 16 minutes before a warning that it was going to be a bad one. People are used to getting the warning and then looking at the sky to judge how serious it is--apparently this time the sky didn't give the usual tells until the 16 minute warning. [ Reply | More

[ - ] Trying to decide if going to go private or public kindergarten in NYC. We can pay the cost but can't pay all of the fundraisers, and extras that are asked for. Also, are families "normal" or are they very weathly for the most part? Maybe public is better but is that the best education for our child. 8 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

Depends partly on your zoned school but biggest advantage overall of private is smaller class size and more individualized attention (even considering very good public schools). What's your zoned school? Private school families tend to be wealthier for sure. [ Reply | More

Public school mom here: I think you'll find more people you like at PS6. You don't want to get into that whole status/money/snob thing with private school. PS6 has nice families and from what I hear a decent curriculum. You can always apply to private for middle school, but there are also some decent public middle schools in your area. [ Reply | More
