[u]Reasons Public School Education is Better than Private School Education[/u]
1. It's free! Sort of, since those who own pay with property taxes. And remember: you get what you pay for....so you might get your $0's worth.
2. Community connection
3. Getting a public school education for relatively small outlay out of pocket is better than paying for **certain** private schools
4. Diverse student body in general. Diverse in race, HHI, etc.

[u]Reasons Private School Education is Better than Public School Education[/u]
1. Favorable student-teacher ratios. Sometimes two times as good as in public
2. Higher outlay on science, art, facility resources per child
3. Better outplacement than most publics. The comparison is between an A- kid in a "Top 3" private versus an A- kid in your local public. Obviously, comparing the top public and top private brings other issues into question

4. In top privates, "better" education than most publics, in part because of part (2)
