[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Biggest difference for us going from public to private was parent involvement, in a good way. At public there were a lot of disruptive kids. Not learning disabled or special needs, just kids that take up a lot of time with discipline. The parents seemed to be oblivious or not care. Seemed like all the kids that wanted to learn ended up just sitting around.[/quote] Parents were oblivious because schools don't mention this stuff to parents until they move way up the discipline ladder, but that takes something much more serious than being a class clown. They may mention it in the 5 minute parent teacher conference, but there really isn't enough time to cover that if the kid is also struggling academically.[/quote]
