[quote=Anonymous]I did public for grammar school and private for H.S. For this reason: I figure 2+2 is still 4 no matter what school. i just made sure I did extra with my son to keep him at the top of the curve. Then in High School, we went private. I figure in H.S. the public school problems are a bigger, and in private school, the other parents seem more on top of the kids. If a kid is messing up, a parent is likely to say, "You can mess up for free in a public school." That way, I assume, you get more kids in private school who care about heading to college...Or at least their parents are pushing them that direction. It seems to be working, as my son is around like-minded teens right now. REgardless, there are plenty of kids who do fine in public. If the parents are on it, the kid will be, too.[/quote]
