[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not all privates are outstanding, and you need to be careful when you choose your private.  The tours can really impress you with their facilities, class size etc, but you need to dig deeper and really understand their curriculum and what/how teachers are teaching.  I work at a private school (not a teacher) and there are a lot of teachers just pulling lessons from chat gpt and teachers pay teachers website, who aren’t doing a whole lot for differentiation.   I wouldn’t spend $50k for that.  [/quote]

Someone is able to counter every anecdote on this site.

I also work in a private school. The teachers are creating lessons that are truly beneficial to the students sitting in front for them, and they are not forced to teach a canned curricula purchased from a company states away. They also tailor the lessons to fit the variety of students they encounter.  And I say this as someone who used to teach in public schools.

You simply can’t make blanket statements. Some privates are far superior to some publics and vice versa.

Just pick what is best for your family and don’t worry about anyone else’s.
