[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes they do. I hear all the time that the schools have no textbooks, there isn't a lot of learning in the classroom because the class size is too big. To them, the public schools aren't good enough.[/quote]

"Not good enough" is not the same as "not good".

And yes, of course people do choose private schools because they believe that the public schools aren't good. If you have to pay $30,000 for a year for something, it must be better, right?[/quote]

I too have heard private school parents insist that "there isn't a lot of learning in the classroom." If their kids are in private not public schools, how can they possibly know this?

Like a PP said, your decisions will depend on the choices you actually have, not the choices you'd like to have. Does your kid have the hooks or test scores to get into a really good private? Because there are some so-so privates that will make you wish you had saved your money and gone public. Can you afford a house in the "best" public school districts? Will you be able to pay a $35k/year or a big mortgage, and still save for college?[/quote]
