[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, I think the private schools prepare kids to be leaders rather than workers.  My husband and I both went to public and we both agree that we were taught to be workers compared to my daughter who is being trained to be a leader lots of project/ presentations etc.  I'm sure the HGC is similiar.[/quote]
All public schools are the same... They did not teach u that in private school?[/quote]

Some of you are so incredibly stupid.  Where's the parenting?

So you're relying on schools to do YOUR job?

We pulled our kid from a small private b/c the teaching methods were far from extraordinary.  I know good teaching; I train teachers.

And the point is this.  Most private school teachers don't have HALF the pedagogy you'll find on a public school teacher's resume.  truth

So why pay for mediocre?  just to hobnob with the rich and famous?  That's not education; it's enabling.

Furthermore, as a parent, it's YOUR job to instill in your child 1) a strong work ethic and 2) perseverance.  So if Ms. Molly Moo is not the most engaging teacher, at least your kid is resourceful enough to make the class or the lessons engaging.

Public school - wherever it falls, whether it's diverse or homogeneous - teaches your child about real life.  So no, I haven't seen evidence to show that private school creates leaders. I have, however, seen disadvantaged kids become leaders in public b/c of the opportunities available.

Parent, people!  Don't enable!  Teach your kids to be resourceful.

I am always amazed at the ignorance on these boards from such an "educated" group of people!  [/quote]
Actually what I meant to say is NOT all public schools are the same...i guess my public school education is showing (oops!)[/quote]
