[quote=Anonymous]I currently work at one of the top three schools and I’ll tell you this, the ninth graders are coming into the community outside of our school perform far better than the students that we’ve had at our lower school and middle school who matriculate to the upper school. Honestly, other schools without the shiny status and names, Public Schools in the area, and some charters are preparing students at a better rate than students who are already enrolled in independent schools. Don’t be fooled by name, location, and bragging rights. Please remember the majority of teachers in independent schools are not trained or certified in their discipline which severely impacts instruction and student outcomes.[/quote]
