[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They talk about it a lot because they need to justify spending that much money. But look, if you live in an area with a high low-income/non-English speaking population, then just know that public school resources will focus on getting those kids up to speed and a below average English speaker will be ignored or there may not be enough resources to focus on your kid who has an IEP or 504 for ADHD or dyslexia. If you live in a high SES area, then all the resources will be spread across all the students, and all the children will thrive. I know this from personal experience having moved and switched public schools within the same school district. I would never send my child to private though, there are all sorts of social issues that come with that, plus the math instruction is pretty terrible.[/quote] Uh…considering in 2022 only 22% of 8th graders nationally met grade level proficiency in math, it looks like most schools are terrible at teaching math or kids are terrible at learning or both [/quote]
