[quote=Anonymous]And then you have the people who hop from school to school or go private seeking a place with no behavior issues, not understanding that any school can have an incident and that it's really luck of the draw who's in your kid's classroom. Yes, some schools handle it better (or more aggressively push for kids to be placed elsewhere, which isn't the same thing as managing it better). But there's no school with zero behavior. Especially in high school, the behavior of high income 
kids can be terrifying, cruel, dangerous, etc.

I've also seen people go private expecting better behavior but what they actually get is more ND kids and more ND kids whose parents are in denial and/or think a small class size will solve it so the kid isn't getting the services they actually need. Or children of donors whose behavior is tolerated for that reason. Or a cohort with a bad reputation so people who have options start leaving so it gets worse. I do think it's better in privates, but not always, and like in public, it only takes one kid to have a tremendous impact. [/quote]
