[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, we make less. But I continue to teach in privates because of the strong community, small class size, supportive families, etc.[/quote] And how does this compare to a top small public school in a wealthy neighborhood? [/quote] Class size and teaching load are mandated by the county in Public Schools. I've taught at a public in a wealthy neighborhood and found many, many supportive parents. Supplies and physical resources (books, computers, basic supplies) were well funded by the PTA, but there are limits to what is allowed. The community was generally great. However, some parents were very pushy and harder to deal with than those at a top private I've had experience with. In my experience, salaries and benefits are better in public, facilities, supplies, support from administration, professional development and flexibility are better from most privates.[/quote]
