[quote=Anonymous]I have had children in both public and private school, and the private school courses are more rigorous. A "regular" class in private school is the equivalent of an honors class in public school. The private school honors classes require higher quality and quantity of writing, and the course content and exams are more advanced and require more sophisticated thinking. It may be different in other private schools, but at my dc's, they wanted students to have all A's and B's. The advisors were astonishingly good at placing students in the correct level class (but at the highest rigor possible) for that to happen. So yes, this is typical.[/quote]
