[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I also have experiences with having children in both DCPS and private schools in NW DC. I will say that we have had phenomenal teachers in both public and private. The academics in private have been better- richer, more thorough, greater care taken to deliver material in a meaningful way. My kids in DCPS were given as much, but not more, than they needed to know for testing purposes. It just felt really uninspired. I think the teachers we had at DCPS were fabulous, and would have much preferred to take a different approach to instruction; but their hands were tied. Our experiences in private K vs public K, were more rest time, more outdoor time, more time to explore and be creative. [/quote] This is helpful, thank you.[/quote]
