[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We did private through 6th and that was perfect. My kids got to spend childhood in classes were rules were (generally) respected and enforced, kids and teachers were respectful, they were able to have the individual academic and emotional needs met. We switched to public because in the upper grades there are actually way more opportunities for advanced instruction. While yes, there are major behavioral problems, my kids are old enough to ignore and carry on. [/quote] Generally, the harder classes in the upper grades in public don't have have the troublemakers. I went to a rough public HS, but took mostly honors (real honors, not the fake ones of today) and AP classes. Everyone in those classes was serious about academics. [/quote] Agree. I’m the PP and was mainly referring to the general classes and electives everyone has to take. The AP classes and actual honors classes are filled with kids there to learn. [/quote]
