[quote=Anonymous]My friend teaches at a very fancy private school and honestly while I think the kids get to do cool things (they go on lots of field trips and get to explore topics in unique ways) it seemed like most of the tuition goes towards networking for parents (so many fancy parent parties at people's houses) and things like fancy catered lunch for the kids each day (that she says largely winds up in the trash). She also sees the same behavioral issues that go in our public school and seemingly has zero ways of addressing it (aside from the school not inviting the kid back, which rarely happens because $$$). I guess it just didn't seem like the education was worth the increased price at the elementary level. [/quote]
