Well, kilns and filmmaking equipment are the only things that sound different than my experience with DCPS on issues that have impacted my child.  It may be different in middle school and beyond but really the cohort is great, class sizes have never been a significant problem and my child is thriving.  The school does not teach a curriculum dictated by DCPS, it has to meet DCPS standards.  Testing is there, but it is not a huge deal and my child enjoys the tests.  If this is all there is (at least at this point) then the difference is not in things that have impacted my child's educational experience.  The teachers are amazing and our facilities are quite nice, with, of course, the exception of the lack of a kiln and filmmaking equipment.  There may be children for whom private makes a big difference but it does not appear to (from what has been said here and what I have learned in conversations IRL) for our experience.  Maybe that will change in later years, I will have to learn that as I go.

who made you the topic police?  I asked a question on an issue I thought would be interesting to explore.  I should have prefaced it with "s/o" but otherwise don't understand why asking for people to explain, to the extent they know, what might be the facts behind frequent unsupported assertions is what I consider an interesting conversation.  We may differ on this.  I have. Hard time understanding why you are taking this so personally.[/quote]

What's up with the kiln obsession?

OP did you attend public or private schools yourself? [/quote]
