[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We just had first quarter conferences. I have several older kids who went to public schools, and so I’ve sat through my fair share of conferences. When the pandemic hit, we transferred my son to private and he stayed there again this year. Anyways I had his conference Friday and for a half hour, I listened to his teacher talk about his strengths and weaknesses and I could tell she knows him almost as well as I do. And I thought back to all the years where the teachers could barely fill the conference time and all I got were generic comments.  The public school teachers are dealing with classes that are too big, and too much time spent on paperwork. 
I’m not sure we’ll ever go back to public. [/quote]

+2 exact same experience with my twin daughters….Just started their first year in private as middle schoolers and it’s so wonderful to see them truly seen by their teachers. I was getting the exact same comments (verbatim) from their teachers each year in our public elementary school. And yes they were in different classes since Kindergarten. Being twins, I especially appreciate that they are seen for the unique individuals that they are![/quote]
