[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Plus how about art, and play time, and the opportunity to develop close relationships with teachers, or love of learning. Not the same, sorry. Doesn't mean every private is better than every public, or every kid should do private, but you're over-simplifying.[/quote] How about sciences, Technologies, Math..not the same, sorry. Publics way ahead.[/quote] Some publics might be teaching more advanced science/math, but not all, and kids are going to need many other skills in the changing economy. Who wants to educate replaceable, anxious robots? And besides, not every kid plans to work in a lab or a tech company. I'd rather my kid had a more well-rounded curriculum and was encouraged to think creatively, read broadly, have wide-ranging interests, etc There's no reason publics can't teach kids similarly to privates--it's how it was done just one generation ago in many, many systems.
