[quote=Anonymous]The reason I wouldn’t be excited about public for high school if my kid had the chance for private is the amount of time spent on standardized tests. I work with public and charter schools throughout the city, and even in a school like Walls, their ranking in the city matters. And so not only is your kid spending unnecessary hours prepping for and taking standardized test that don’t even matter for their own learning and growth, but the teachers have this stress pulling at them too. instead of thinking, how can I get my students really into this content that will give them an enriching academic and life experience? they are thinking about that stuff.
