請教：一定要去好學區嗎？

常常見到很多華人父母都想讓自己的孩子去最好學區里的學校上學．可能是因為華人家長都很注重教育吧．但我不知讓孩子從小都上最好的小學，初中，高中甚至是 preschool 真的那麼重要嗎？上最好的學校是有更多機會考上最好的大學嗎？有什麼不好嗎？不知大家是否可以談一談．謝謝．

上最好的學校是有更多機會考上最好的大學嗎？有什麼不好嗎？

如果是同等的智商的情況下，
上最好的學校是有更多機會考上最好的大學的。

不好的地方，
壓力要比常人更大，
支撐不住反而要跨！

If you can, why not? We do our best to have our children educated, including sending them to the good schools we can afford, not necessarily from kindergarten or preschool. My elder son used to be the best student in his classes from kindergarten through third grade, and then we moved into a better school area a few years ago. He has been doing good at school since the relocation, even though he might not the best in his classes any more. He has joined math and swimming clubs and works late every night to get his homework done along with his daily piano practice and Kumon reading routines. He is busy and complains occasionally, but most importantly, he enjoys what he is doing now, enjoys learning more than he did before. He even knows what universities he will probably go in the future because most of his classmates will land there or somewhere better than those.

Anyway, don't take my words seriously, take your children seriously.

private school better. 不知好學區是什麼意思? 以前在網上看到,說美國的好學區無非就是中國人印度人的子女多. 而我這裡呢? 如BALWYN HIGH, GELENWAVELEY HIGH, 也是差不多就是這意思, 中國人的孩子多,讀書的風氣要比一般STATES SCHOOLS好,有個十來年的時間,就越來越好,而主要的原因也就是中國人搬到這個地區的越來越多.因為歷年VCE的成績好,洲政府也不斷給學校投資,所以明顯好過一般STATE SCHOOL.

MELBOURNE是一個私校比例很高的地方,私校占整個學校的比例竟然達到29%. 在許多貴的地區,很容易發現私校的數量要大大大於公校,有的區甚至沒有公校.

私校和公校還是有差別的,比較重視全面發展,對他人對社會的CARE,和一種比較規範化的學習環境,而不一定是成績.

我覺得在上海貴族學校聽說教學質量挺不錯，而且很注重培養孩子的全方面，但是費用卻是很昂貴，不是一般人能承受地起，而且聽說這類學校也是比較勢力．
我還是覺得給小孩上一所重點比較好，如果小孩願意或有可能的話．因為學校的學習氣氛和環境都會影響著孩子．而且教學質量還可以．

yes, good district is better

多謝各位
