[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You all keep saying better prepared. My neighbors kid who goes to public seems pretty prepared to me. She just won a national writing contest and got ED into Yale. She’s constantly involved in activities around social justice and is on her schools speech and debate team. Shes friendly with my kids and they do there is crossover in the neighborhood social groups from school since they all grew up together. I’m trying to say that I do know many of these kids. Public kids don’t seem to be suffering academically or intellectually or in unpreparedness in any way. Her older sibling actually tutors area kids in the summer for math and writing and college prep. Parents went to non-Ivy League schools and are very comfortable but not at the upper echelon of caliber that I see have private. I’m just questioning what better prepared means. My kid has a lot of Homework and he’s also in a much much smaller school and smaller class ratios I still don’t see how that prepare somebody better - again I’m all for private and we can afford it but that’s just one argument that I keep hearing over and over that doesn’t make sense to me - please explain more of what you mean.
