[quote=Anonymous]I am a public school graduate, as is my husband. If public schools were similar to how we grew up, we would enroll our kids. I spent a lot of time up at ours, and every few years check in again. The teaching to the test is real. The funds for extracurriculars, as well as music, art, and language are slim. The classes are overfilled. My kids are not the top of the top, but in a private school environment, they do well and I know they are getting a great education. I also know that their teachers really know them, and that matters to me. I also feel like I have a relationship with the teachers, the administration and other faculty. I like that and I think it helps promote a sense of community. I value the college advising and in this day and age, think it is very helpful resource. I feel like I know most of the parents in the grade, and as issues arise in high school, etc. I will be able to talk to these parents openly and honestly about things that may be going on, parties and other issues.
