[quote=Anonymous]Not all private schools are created equal. Let's all remember that. The $$$ ones, are picky about who they let in. Their scores will be higher; the students will come from higher income families. The less pickier ones aren't that much better than public schools in terms of curriculum and teaching, but they have smaller class sizes. They can afford things like extra music, PE, art because you are paying for it with your tuition. I came from a public school district where we had to "donate" $1000 per child ever year for those "extras". Yep, it was the Bay Area - perpetually under funded public schools.[/quote]
