[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The quality of education my child receives at his private so far exceeds that my public school nieces and nephews it is startling.  We know that he is not likely to get into ivy but he wasn’t likely to get into ivy from public either.  He is however so far advanced in his education I feel cheated having gone to public school.  In 6th and 7th grades he was using the same textbooks that his high school cousins were using.  It was sad.[/quote]

Ditto. I went to a top public and it simply doesn’t compare to the education my kids are getting. My 8th grader is a solid B student at a Big 3 who won’t be going ivy. His friends and teammates in public school are straight A students who have bragged about their straight A since the pandemic despite being virtual for almost 2 years. My DC has been going to school since 9/21. No one can tell me these straight A students are smarter or better educated than my B student. DC stands out - he sounds intelligent. His friends all sound like idiots despite their straight A’s. It’s actually comical. And yea, those straight A students may get into a “better” college but they still sound like idiots. [/quote]
