[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I forgot that the OP is asking as a teacher. As a teacher, you would notice more entitlement from the students and parents, and an attitude from your administration that says "the customer is always right." It can feel like working high-end retail or being a nanny for very wealthy clients. In exchange for a high price you provide parents and children with a wonderful experience.[/quote] Interesting, the teachers at our kids' private talk about how they love teaching in a school where the administration will buy them whatever they need/want for the classroom. They also rave about the paid summer research/training. Mostly, the seem to love the freedom they have to mold the curriculum. We had great teachers in public too. However, we heard a lot about the constraints in the curriculum, particularly when the county decided to have three reading groups in every class, and basically eleiminate accelerated math in elementary school.
