[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids started in very highly rated public schools, which routinely had over 30 kids per class -- even at the lower elementary level. I don't care how good the teachers are, that is a struggle.[/quote] PP: I said within reason. Over 30 might be a struggle. But the difference between 17 and 22 might not be worth the cost, if the money can be put into something else. Also, if you have a lousy teachers...small class size will not overcome that. Not making an argument that we should have large class size...just trying to suggest small classes are not the magic bullet and that some thought needs to be given to the cost/benefits at certain levels.[/quote]
