Private School or Public School?

[nageov3t]

which did you go to, and which do you plan on sending your kids to?

I went to private school, and plan on sending my kids to private school. Probably the same schools that I went to, unless I move.

I am currently attending public school, and I would likely put my kids into public school as well.

 

[AgaBoogaBoo]

Keep in mind lots of AT is in school right now

I went to public, but I don't really know about my kids. I might have kids, but I am not thinking about where they're going to school just yet. Depends on the area I guess.... and my finances in the future.

High school or college?

Public/home.

 

[Zim Hosein]

Pubic! 😛

 

[HardcoreRobot]

assuming the public schools where i am living are not total crap ass, my kids will be going there. private schools are good too, but nowhere near worth the expense imo

I'd try to live in a good area and send them to a good public school.

Graduated from a public high school and going to a private college, though.

I went to private, and hated it. Nonetheless, I hate more the pervasive stupidity of those around me, and I will give my children any opportunities to rise above the rabble, from an educational standpoint. So, I will either send them to private school or move to an upper class suburb that has a superior public school system.

We will drive crappy cars and cut corners if we have too, to send our kids to a good school system. Of course, since I went to a private school I'm smart enough not to have to 😀

high school.

IMO, there's not much difference between public and private colleges (which is to say, there are substantial differences between all colleges, but whether they're public or private doesn't seem to have a huge impact).

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink.

Public/private makes little difference if the kid want/doesn't want to learn.

I don't entirely agree. I never wanted to learn, and feel that I could have blended in more in a public school with those who didn't. My class was small and there were far fewer places to hide. I've seen prodigies go to public schools and do fine, but I wasn't one of them. I have to question where I'd be if I'd have gone to a public school.

 

[MrCodeDude]

Public / depends.

I think public schools are more fun than private schools, but if the public school system is crap, then private it is.

I don't plan on having my children educated at all.
