[quote=Anonymous]I have one kid in each. The private provides better customer service in every way - the head of school knows us, knows our child. There's drop-in aftercare, and it's excellent. I can speak to my child's teacher every day at pickup about how the day went. The school provides all school supplies. There's organic food grown in the garden and cooked by a chef. Academically, there's much more writing, hands-on science, and more specials. The depth of the academic work my private school kid was doing in 2nd or 3rd grade is far different from what my public school kid is getting. It's the difference between an interesting hands-on assignment and a ton of worksheets. But that said, it costs tons and we've decided for financial reasons to supplement instead, at least for now.
