[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have both public and private school kids and I think private can polish a rough-around-the-edges kid. I have one of these who isn't by nature an outgoing smooth talker, etc. Frankly, his baseline is to be kind of awkward. He goes to STA for upper school and since he started I have seen him grow in leaps and bounds in his ability to talk to adults, to older kids, as a public speaker, etc. I know plenty of public school kids who have these abilities at baseline. But kids who do not may benefit from a smaller private school setting, especially one that really forces kids to come out of themselves and learn public speaking, etc (which is pretty much all of them).
