[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Catholic school in my neighborhood outperforms my neighborhood PGCPS by a mile. The high performing Catholic school received significantly less money per pupil than the public school. Money is not the problem.[/quote] How can you tell the school is outperforming the public school? Kids in Catholic schools do not take the same tests as those in public school so how can you compare? My neighbor has a daughter in Catholic school who was asked to leave the school because they were not able to educate her due to behavior issues. Guess where she went? That's right, public school had to take her. And she's doing fine, but now the public school teachers have to do the hard work of the remedial teaching that the Catholic school teachers just "couldn't" seem to manage. Public school teachers manage it, because they have to. They don't have the option of counseling students out who aren't doing well or aren't a good fit.[/quote]
