[quote=Anonymous]I have high school kids in private and in public. I actually think the pressure in the public school was worse, and here's why. In private school my son had a block schedule with longer classes meeting every other day. Sure, there was a lot of homework assigned but kids had two days to do it all for a particular subject. Also, the private school day started later (8 am) than the public school day (7:20 am) and was a longer day overall, building in more free time for starting homework, seeing teachers, etc. Even with sports after school the day was more balanced and manageable that what my public school kid encounters at his "W" public.[/quote]
