[quote=Anonymous]I guess, you have to really investigate how good your local public is. In our local public schools, in addition to a lot violence and lockdowns, the academic standards are very low. A student may fail a class, but will be given a C so he/she can pass. A parent can ask the teacher to give student extra work to make up for failing grade. It's like that Covid joke "C's are now B's, B's are A's and if you get an A, you skip a grade." There are several kids I know from local public schools that were A students, got great test scores and spent their days playing video games and not studying. They got scholarships to get into colleges because of their grade GPAs and failed the first year because they didn't have study habits. In our private school you really have to work hard to get an A. It's not easy at all.[/quote]
