[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] And privates have inflated numbers because they just kick out underachievers. It's not as if they're actually educating kids any better, they're just discarding them or not letting them in. You clearly aren't very bright. Did you go to a private school?[/quote] They are actually educating better because they don’t have class disruptions and don’t have to spend time to discipline students. There are special private schools just for kids with learning disabilities. If a kid falls behind private school do work individually with students to help them catch up, there are a lot more resources for individual approach. My DC’s French teacher sends me an email that my child is acting very tired in class. In public school I’m not sure they even noticed she was in the class. When DC missed a few days due to sickness the academic advisor at private school together with teachers worked with her to help her catch up on material. I feel they’re vested in her success. There was nothing like this in public school. The attitude was “you are doing OK? Good. I don’t have to spend any attention on you.”[/quote]
