[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your idea of strong academics is learning certain things to perform well on a test, then public school is a great choice.  If your idea of strong academics is developing a well-rounded, creative thinker, then private school is worth every penny.  [/quote]

please. I fully understand that these schools want to believe that they are nurturing creativity, but someone show me the evidence. yes, the kids smile a lot, they are happy, but what evidence do we have that they are more creative? and what are they losing in this process of developing creative minds...if you can really develop that...if these schools are really doing that. you takes your chances. 
I am not against creativity, but someone needs to show that it can be nurtured, and that these schools are indeed nurturing it and that they have to compromise academics in the process of nurturing it. [/quote]

It's nice to be able to brag about nurturing abilities that can't be quantified. If they figure out how to measure creativity, maybe the math curricula at private schools will improve.
