No comparison-Private schools are better.
My kids were more involved and more excited about learning when attending their private school. In public they kinda got lost. I've noticed that in public there's an apathy that seems to infect most of the staff. My daughter's classmate was knocked unconscious during gym once-they called an ambulance and sent her to the hospital but she went without being accompanied by anyone in the school-her mother was called and told what hospital she was at and that was it.
