[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teacher here:

The educational experience at my public school was amazing.  Hardworking, thoughtful teachers who worked their butts off putting tons of thought into what they were teaching and why.  It was a high ranking DCPS on capital hill.

Switched to a private school to have a better commute.  It was horrible.  No one every did good planning, super old school teachers who were never open to new teaching practices.  Taught to the middle so you're screwed if kids are gifted/sped.[b]  I m convinced people spent $30k/year to surround their kids with other rich families.

if you're in a good public school, thats where i would send my kid.  If not, try charter or private- but look closely![/quote]

The bolded has to be true. Otherwise some of these people are idiots.

I know a professional family(MBA and law degrees from top schools)  who had two part time jobs in addition to their full time jobs to send their kids to private school that cost 30K a year. Their neighborhood schools were and are still some of the top schools in the state.

They barely saw their kids during weekdays. By the time they came home, the kids were already in bed. [/quote]
