The never-ending public school vs. private school debate
The Center on Education Policy in Washington, D.C., released today the report of a 12-year study tracking a cohort of students through urban public and private schools. It found that:
"...once family background characteristics are taken into account, low-income students attending public urban high schools generally performed as well academically as students attending private high schools. The study also found that students attending traditional public high schools were as likely to attend college as those attending private high schools. In addition, the report also finds that young adults who had attended any type of private high school were no more likely to enjoy job satisfaction or to be engaged in civic activities at age 26 than those who had attended traditional public high schools."

A child does not have to go to private school to get a good education. If a child reads as much as a private school child, he/she will be ok. Private schools expect more and get more out of a child than public schools. Also, the children are more focused. Private school provides a higher percentage of students in the classroom that want to learn than public schools.
Both of my children went to public schools. They did great and I don't believe they would have done any better in private schools. But you must understand that the success of the private schools hinges on reading and writing expectations of the school and not the wealth of the child's parents.
