[quote=Anonymous]OP, between my three kids, I have experience at seven different schools (2 DCPS, 1 DC charter, 4 privates). The variability due to specific school, specific teacher, specific kid is vast, so your child may have a completely different experience next year if you stay in public and some of the things you dislike about this year might not be fixed with a move to private. I would talk to as many other parents as you can to learn what their experiences were (knowing yours may be different just because your child is unique and you may have different expectations). What is undoubtedly different about private is that you will pay tuition and they can get rid of problematic students more easily. But even there, one of the privates was full of misbehaving, disruptive students so private isn't even a full guarantee for that. Good luck.[/quote]
