[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve taught in privates and many of you all have a romantic view of how the low grades function. Having earned an advanced degree in education, I’d much rather my child work in small groups and at literacy stations in a large public classroom than have one lecture-style activity in a medium-size private classroom. No, there aren’t too many privates with more than one teacher in the primary grades. Perhaps it’s true in K.[/quote] My kids private school is gender based and he has 9 kids in his class. No, the public school is not better, even the best public school doesn't come close. [/quote] But you see, you will never believe another view, even though teachers who have seen kids from private to public and public to private tell you otherwise. I’m one of those teachers. Maybe your kid has a great set up now but that’s not always to be. A 9 student class has its downsides, also. Private’s have less funding for materials, often uncertified teachers, weaker math, easier grading and lots of gaps in the material taught. [/quote]
