Reply To: Can we have an adult conversation about education?

YMribiat as with anything, parents prioritize what is most important to them. In order for a school to be ideal for a parent , there would be only one person consulted for any decisions to be made. That person would be the parent him/herself. We find that no two parents have exactly the same outlook on any major topic. we all try to find the school that most identifies with our philosophy.
Ubiquitin: Call me naive but I thought that following daas torah means subjugating your opinion in hashkafic matters to your choice of Hashkafic mentor. If the Rebbe of that particular sect feels that there shouldn’t be secular studies in any amount, why are you disagreeing? and if you choose to disagree, then why would you want to send to the school that is run on the foundations of his hashkafa. I wont send my child to Satmar, and I also wont send to Yeshiva of Flatbush. Not that I know that they are wrong, but rather Why would I choose a school and Hashkafic mentor that I don’t agree with?
