[quote=Anonymous]I don't think it's possible with the diversity and numbers in public schools to really shine as a whole in mainstream USA. Totally impossible. You can however have certain districts with specific families who are supportive in the educational front have strong public schools. I think people expect too much from the system and need to be realistic. We sent our kids to private as we wanted them to have a curriculum that developed them to be well rounded but we also know that schools can only do so much and it's up to us as parents to see them leverage their abilities to succeed academically. That means learning how to advocate for themselves, organize effectively, do the work to learn but also be able to socially engage. To me, the real gift of public schools enable socialization and that's key to a practical education. How you relate to others will ultimately ensure your success. Academically, the system will never be strong enough for everyone. [/quote]
