[quote=Anonymous]I was a public school kid and my husband went to one of the big 3. I was a staunch defender of public schools. But I agreed to keep an open mind and we toured a few schools. Yes the facilities are beautiful. And the class options more and varied - foreign language in elementary school! Music and arts for all! You want thingamabobs? They’ve got 20!! But what sold me was hearing teachers get excited about the way they and their classes are creatively exploring different subjects. And these teacher collaborate across grade levels to make and tweak as needed. Then you go into the public and the teachers explain the curriculum, which is all mandated by the county or the state, and here are the books they’re teaching too which they don’t think are great but that’s the one they have to use, and you realize maybe private wouldn’t be so bad.[/quote]
