I'd never thought about it like that but its true.  Our private treats us like adults and I feel like the relationship between the school and families is cooperative.  Overall my private isn't afraid of families the way our public was.  Its okay for the school to have certain expectations for families.  It probably helps that the families are more homogenous but overall it makes for a much more well run experience.

I also echo the posts that there are no extreme behavioral challenges at our private.  I'm not saying that the average kid at our private is better behaved than the average kid at public but there are no significantly disruptive kids.  In public, my kid was forced to evacuate their classroom for their safety while another child tore it apart and threw chairs across the room several times over the course of a year.  Private schools just don't accept (or have the resources to help) kids with that level of challenges.  [/quote]
