[HPFGU-OTChatter] High School in US

[Tammy]

Tammy says:

There are a couple of blaring differences between public and private
schools.

Private schools have much, much, much smaller classes so they can be tutored
on a more one on one basis than a public school class which can have between
30-40 students in it.

Private schools students tend to be more of the richer variety than public
school students.  They pay an obscene amount of money sometimes for better
teachers, smaller classes and a classier curriculum.

I, having attended a public school find nothing wrong with public school
teachers but I guess it comes down to their education petigree.

You can check out a list of private schools in NY from the link below.  They
almost all have a link going to their own website.

I hope this helped.

public school in NY :o)
