[quote=Anonymous]This is more teacher dependant in my opinion, than anything else. I felt the same way, and had actually planned to keep my September bday DD in one extra year of "Reggio" based preschool versus Kindergarten last year. Pandemic and virtual opportunity changed this  - as we decided to give our in-boundary school a try and not stress over what our kid accomplished academically.  The teacher we had was amazing. I could not have asked for a better experience, albeit online, for my kids introduction to academics. I was not as thrilled with the assistant teacher, and had she been at the helm, the experience would have been entirely different.

Point being - you can end up with amazing and not so great teachers in public and private, it's the luck of the draw; some privates do claim to foster a love of learning, as do some publics. In practice it is not exactly so. There are a few DC publics/charters that do seem to veer that way and are by far better than some privates, which may actually be a more stressful learning environment in some respects. My kid does not go there, but I visited Murch, and it was amazing. I have also heard some great things about Mundo Verde and other charters.
