[quote=Anonymous]MCPS public school is likely fine for your kid - unless it isn't. The idea that there is a single answer to what is "better" is laughable. Private schools are all different. Public schools vary a lot. What each kid needs/environment that is best for them varies. The one argument I will make is the whole "better teachers in public". Public school teachers might be more qualified, experienced, whatever. They are also completely handcuffed by rules/regulations, huge classes, etc. We've had a few (like 3/30+) that weren't totally burnt out, focused on "maintining control of the class" and really just going through the motions. It's a shame, but definitely the reality, that public school teachers just don't have a lot to give beyond implementing the curriculum. Even that can be hard.[/quote]
