[quote=Anonymous]One of my kids did k-2 public then 3-12 private, and the other did k-12 private. I pulled my older kids because even pre pandemic the state of public education was declining, at least in our big county. If we hadn’t been able to swing private, we would have moved to a town-based school district. My point is that it’s not so much public vs private but the strength of a specific public program vs the strength of a specific private program, at least for kids without any specific learning needs. But I agree with the college professor. A strong private tends to be the best prep for college. My kids are aware that they’re more prepared than many (but not all of course) public HS graduates. Things are different now in education. For lots of reasons, public school education isn’t thriving the way it did when many of us parents attended ourselves. For what it’s worth I work in the field.
