[quote=Anonymous]My kids did learn things in public school, with support at home. But they learn a lot more in a private school that's relatively old school. Personally I subscribe to the Dorothy Sayers model of education: stuff elementary brains with facts, teach middle school brains logic, then teach high schoolers and college kids how to present their theoretically well reasoned articles based on facts. For that, of course, we have to agree on what constitutes a fact. And good luck in a school where the will of the majority determines whose in charge and we're so polarized these days.[/quote]
