[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But STEM quality in private schools is poor! And parents totally know that. So I don't think there is any surprise.[/quote]

NP here. Why would that be the case, if true?  Why could a public school do STEM better than a private school?  And I’m not asking why isn’t private better than public. I’m asking, what factors are at play in a private school that it can’t do STEM as well as a public?
And I’m here for the conversation and to learn something. Not to be in any snarky fights.  Ty![/quote]

I post based on my own experience, comparing a prestigious independent school in DC with public magnet schools in Virginia. The independent private school is weak in STEM. Having said that, there might be other private schools that are strong in STEM and public schools that are weak in STEM. Also, many kids from elite private schools still go to RSM to reinforce their math. That level of math is simply not provided by most private schools. [/quote]
