[quote=Anonymous]I have kids in both. One is at a top 5 and the other in a MCPS public school. Class sizes are high 20's in public and low teens in private. Teachers have more time to actually teach in private because they don't have the common core, lots of write-ups, horrible report cards, testing, standardized testing to worry about. Uniforms are the best Students are diverse in both of our schools but sadly, in public the diverse kids (minus the Asians) tend to be on the lower end of the learning curve. At private there are kids in every race/culture at top levels. It is very nice for my child to see this. Much to my surprise, there is much more respect for a child's culture, race, sexual orientation, economic status at a private. Kids with behavior issues or kids who aren't really trying and acting "too cool for school" get sent packing. It is actually cool to be smart in private school. You won't be made fun of. [/quote]
