I'm seriously considering taking my kids out of public school

School security was the number one reason we chose private school.

God, no! Exact opposite in most good private schools. Overly liberal if anything.

Every parent I know in our privateer school supports strong gun control. It’s not a religious private, btw.

+1. Top private schools are notoriously liberal.

Not religious privates.

Religious privates are not top (save Sidwell).

But the first PP said nothing about “top” privates - that was one of the replies. Plenty of privates are very conservative.

Your specific school. Tons of privates have no more security (and often less) than publics. I’ve worked in two catholic schools and neither has security of any kind.

I think our private is safer than our public schools. Security was the #1 selling point.

You are all really bad at risk assessment. But this has always been true.

All the private schools in our area had much tighter security and much stronger policies in regard to troubled kids. My DS is in a very secure Catholic private school.

Trust me, we shopped around.

Depends on the religion. There are other religious schools out there

Not really. The top private schools are like the top universities - always liberal. This is a fact, PP, and has been for decades.

None “top” that I can think of.

Hope you also don’t let him go to malls, movies, grocery stores, concerts or sporting events!

There is something really nice about a small private school where you know everyone. The money for added security helps. And the ability to recognize troubled kids due to the size is a positive.

If you can afford it, OP, start looking around.

You’re being a parrot and it’s boring. Stop embarrassing yourself, PP.

Security is an illusion. Do you have any idea how much of life you can’t control? Car accidents, terminal diseases, etc. If you have not been affected by tragedy, consider yourself lucky.
