[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Considering most school shootings are done by students, I would say privates are safer.  My son is in private.  They spend a lot of time on conflict resolution, emotional awareness, empathy etc.  They pair younger students with older students for a multitude of “buddy” activities.  Older kids end up looking out for the younger ones, thus eliminating a lot of bullying situations.  The kids have respect for each other and their school.  99 out of 100 times the kids police each other before a teacher needs to get involved.  And you can’t look like the scary kid in a trench coat when everyone is wearing the same thing.  Also DS school is very diverse, racially and socioeconomically.  They understand that people come from different places/types of homes.  A lot of this they learn from underlying themes in curriculum.

Oh paleeze.  Are you seriously suggesting that the curriculum at your school makes it safer than a public school?  What a joke.  [/quote]
