[quote=Anonymous]It really depends on the independent school as well as the public school, and the specific child. My two boys went to a very rigorous private school in another state (had about 30 percent of the state's NM Semi finalists). The older boy thrived at the school, was motivated by the competition and loved the small classes and mostly wonderful teachers. My younger son moved to fairfax county in high school (went to independent school through 9th) and much prefers public school. He is just as bright as his brother but a different personality. He likes the diversity and feels as though the kids are nicer. And BTW, the Private school kept tragedies quiet, but had students commit suicide, and kids had access to drugs and alcohol just like at the public school in Va. My older son did note the students brought very expensive liquor to parties. [/quote]
