[quote=Anonymous]Someone thought it was significant that a public school teacher sent her two kids to private.  There can be so many reasons for that, ranging from individual student need to religion to family tradition to a desire for single sex education etc. It doesn't necessarily mean the public school teacher thinks the public school is sub-par. One also has to take into consideration the fact that there are better benefits in the public school system for teachers, which is why many teachers choose to work in a public school, and one way the schools can attract talent. With all the testing and evaluations based on numbers and huge class sizes, teachers may make a different calculation and decide to teach in private, where they can have some autonomy, easier classroom management/differentiation, more room for creativity, and less of a bureaucracy. I think a lot of  public school teachers are pretty disillusioned right now, and it doesn't help that public sentiment is anti-teacher.
