[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So what you mean is, teachers who notice the "quiet" kid and spend time to find his or her passion? Or maybe you mean teachers who spend time to work with the struggling kid? This does happen at publics, maybe not quite as much, but it happens.[/quote] Smaler classes also mean that kids who are very capable are not allowed to just coast and yet get straight "A"s, as happened with our oldest who went to public through middle school. He had to work harder and think more deeply when he got to a "Big 3" high school. He ended up doing very well, developed great study and time-management skills, and loved the challenge. [/quote] High school is harder and requires deeper thought than middle school anywhere, private or public. My kid found this going from private to public.[/quote]
