[quote=Anonymous]Privates really vary, but what we have liked the best for our different kids (who are normal kids not uber achievers) For our boys, understanding how boys thrive: every day a schedule with academic time then time to run around in the am, more academics, long recess. Did wonders for my sons - even one who doesn't love sports. Daily writing practice and teachers who can guide/coach in writing. For tests, sentence responses/math problem, not much multiple choice. Frequent Public speaking particularly for shy kids to build confidence. Simple Uniforms - so no fuss in the am on what to wear or what to buy for the school year :) What we miss from public school, diversity, neighborhood friendships, walking to school/bus stops, services for kids when there are challenges and of course, costs.
