[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Assuming they can do this for the kids entire education I would jump on it. My kid has been in small private since 4th and it’s like night and day. We had great teachers in public school in K-2nd so not knocking them. But private offers small class sizes, less violence and overall disturbances and more individual teaching. To be fair in ES the class disruptions were due to kids with autism that were mainstreamed and were struggling, so having meltdowns, not because of violent kids. It’s still disruptive though. [/quote] BS BS Bs Not one private in the DMV can compete with public’s Privates don’t even have counselors that are certified Nor are All the teachers And religious privates are indoctrination centers math and science lol no [/quote] OP, this poster is extremely uninformed. I’ve taught in both public and private schools. The private: each student has two counselors (one general and one specifically for college prep) The public: counseling was shut down 1/4 the year The private: teachers must maintain certification and the school provides regular, useful professional development opportunities The public: admin through together PD sessions 20 minutes before they started The private: offered AP Physics, AP Chem, AP Bio, etc. (And yes, this is a Catholic school. The PP probably believes Catholics don’t believe in science, even though the Big Bang was the idea of a Catholic priest.) The public: stopped offering AP Bio because nobody signed up. Never offered AP Physics Now, this is just my experience. [/quote]
