[quote=Anonymous]IMO, private schools excel in teaching writing and engaging in class discussion. I don't think there's as much of an advantage in the STEM courses. Also, private schools just FEEL different socially. They usually provide a smaller, more close-knit community. There is more time built into the school day for community building activities and extracurriculars. The large publics, even the very good ones, cannot replicate this. IMO, if you can afford private and have generally been pleased with it, then stay with it through graduation. Education is about more than getting into college. [/quote]
