[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It depends on what you want for your child. Don't assume public is ok. Also, don't assume private is better. Do your research and visit the schools. Find out what matters to you: amount of homework (yes, 3rd graders can have homework), amount of recess time, amount of enrichment activities, how they help gifted or special needs kids, etc. Then make you decision. For me, I think the standardized testing is stupid in public schools and greatly reduces the effectiveness of learning throughout the year. So, I take my money and select a private school that I'd like our kids to grow up in rather than getting pushed to do well in a single standardized test at the end of the year.[/quote] Also don't assume that all public schools teach to a standardized test and have ineffective teaching throughout the year.[/quote]
