Michelle Obama brought First Daughters Malia and Sasha to visit their top school choices today in preparation for their big move to Washington.
The Associated Press reports that a motorcade was parked outside of Chelsea Clinton's alma mater Sidwell Friends for 40 minutes earlier today. A similar motorcade was parked outside of Georgetown Day. No official statement was released from the Obamas or from either school. Momlogic broke down potential private school details including prices last week and our readers had plenty to say about whether or not the daughters should attend a public or private school. Below are some details ... |

I believe that any member of the federal or state government that makes decisions regarding our public school system should be required to send their children to their local public school. Maybe this would force our government to take a better look at our school system. I do not like the Obama family and won’t be surprised if their daughters go to private school. For a family that is so for the people they sure do want to live above most of them.

I think the girls should attend a private school. It would be a safer place to them to get an education. Not only that but being at a public school could interrupt other students. The Obama’s have every right to do what’s best for their children. I’m sure if any of us walked a mile in their shoes we would do the same.

mother of five angels, as someone who works in a public school setting, and whose two children are getting a very good education in a public school setting, I disagree with you. The tone of your email is that public school is some sort of ‘punishment’ or something. Not all public schools are awful. And, I don’t think that other children should have to have their education disrupted for the security of the Obama girls—private schools are better equipped to deal with the security issues. I’d rather see them go private.

My intention was not to imply that all public schools are of poor quality, Mary. You must be very blessed to be in a wonderful school district. What we do know and I think you’ll agree is public schools vary greatly throughout the US. Some districts are well funded while others struggle. I know that better than most being a military spouse who has resided all over the country. Having elected officials children attend public school could only be a winning situation for our children. How better for officials to understand our needs. Just saying!
