[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The free public school is not as nice as the pricey private school? Shocker.

It’s like driving an Audi when you can only afford a Ford Fit. [/quote]

If you're only talking about buildings, your analogy might work.  It's much deeper than that, though.  There's the difference in cohort (SES and diversity), [b]hand-holding, clout from parents, etc. [/b]

A school isn't made by the building.  It's nice if the building is clean, hasn't working electricity and water.  Beyond that, it's the students and teachers.  And administration.  [/quote]

Haha. Have you read about the handholding that people demand from public schools?? Personal scribes, private busses, OT, PT, ESL etc. All on my dime. The handholding that people demand of public schools is nauseating.

You are referring to accommodations that are required by federal law. [/quote]

And yet all of things wouldn’t given for "free’ at a private school. You would be paying for them. Hence, extreme handholding. [/quote]

Actually, they are available to your child through the public school system, per federal law.  If you choose not to take it vantage of that benefit of your tax dollars at work, then that is on you.

You are ignorant. [/quote]
