[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP you are thinking about this the wrong way. It's not about public vs. private - it's about your specific public vs. your specific privates. There are some very low-performing private schools and some very high-performing publics. It's not black or white.

If you want to really investigate all your options go tour your public school while the kids are in there. Observe the classes, check out the schedule. Talk to other parents. Talk to the PTA. Then, if that school isn't acceptable, think about moving. That's what a lot of public school parents do- move to the area for the public school they like.

That said, if the money isn't a hardship and you are happy where you are, stay and enjoy.

Also, there's a great thread from a few days ago that asks parents who went to private school themselves and who send their kids to public why they chose to do so. I found it very interesting.[/quote]

Thank you. That is a great way of looking at it and I will request a tour. As my concern is about highschool mainly, who do I contact to arrange a tour? The principal's office at the public school? [/quote]
