This. Dedicated teachers and taking classes with students who are equally dedicated and enjoy learning, Beautiful facilities, small classes, school trips, lack of behavioral issues in class, one on one teacher student relationships, college like sporting facilities, and so much more. [/quote]

Yeah, because private schools are immune to teachers who aren’t dedicated. Give me a break woman. [/quote]

Roughly half of the teachers at my DD high school (yes, Big 3) are pretty poor quality. Dumping crazy workloads on to students does not make them good teachers![/quote]

100% correct. That is happening at our private and parents complained but the school won’t budge. They view it as “rigor.”  A good amount is busy work and 
often has the opposite effect of accomplishing what the school thinks it’s accomplishing by this supposed “rigor.”  Ironically, it’s mostly in ancillary classes while the core classes take a backseat. [/quote]
