I have to take exception to this post. I am a parent who sends their child to private school and the lure is this: No mandates by the politicians and school boards. Money raised by the school and PTA can be used for providing students exactly what they need to succeed. Parents who actually care about their kids and are involved with providing and supportive and caring environments. Administrations that can custom plan curriculums and provide the children with challenging and intellectual learning plans.
REX's mom: Yo should be grateful that your parents care so deeply about you that they spend tens of thousand each year to send you to school. This could be a yearly salary in some areas of the US. Both my husband and I went to private school and it has helped us greatly in our lives. Alumni Associations for private schools can provide endless resources for you later in life. Even at 6, my son understands the gift of the private education he receives here in Manhattan. No matter where you are, ther IS a difference between private and public. You will come out of a private education more enriched than your public school counterparts. SO, WHAT, you have to wear a uniform. Suck it up. Your parents are doing what's best for you.
