[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cons: Cost (obviously) Commute Pros: Ratios are half the size Teachers know the kids, really know them Teach for learning, not test scores [b]No riff-raff.[/b] Public is babysitting for many families Great community Families wanting the same things For us personally, same-sex education (girls) has been incredible for my child. We did public the first few years to make local friends and it worked out well. She now has 2 groups of close girls and is just more confident in private. Very worth it for us. [/quote] That's my children you're talking about. On the other hand, my children are better off without classmates whose parents consider my children riff-raff, so: thank you for sending your child to private school.[/quote]
