[quote=Anonymous]We sent our kids to both private and public. The teachers in private school weren't any better - in fact the public school teachers were better in our good school district for the most part. In the public school with more classes per grade, there were more smart kids around who were doing well in activities like mathcounts, science fairs, robotics and TJ admissions. The public school provided more levels of math - the private school couldn't/wouldn't provide differentiation. I think there's a lot of magical thinking about what a private school will do for your child. You might be better off spending your money on after school enrichment classes.[/quote]
