[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On average, private schools tend to do better in teaching writing, history, literature etc. The small class sizes mean that teachers can assign lots of essays and give lots of feedback. They also tend to offer courses in [b]Latin and Art History, which public schools dropped long ago.[/quote][/b] Not true. [b]Most (all?) area publics offer AP Art History and Latin.[/b] When we looked into Sidwell a few years back, they didn't offer Latin.[/quote] Churchill does not offer either. They dropped Latin for Sign Language. [/quote]
