Agreed. Most folks are naive and believe a couple of stories on Twitter/telephone game. If I believed everything on there, all cops would suck,etc. There are crazy things/stories that happen in every profession.

For those of you with experience, is private school worth it? My boys are in elementary school, and my wife really wants to put them in a private Christian school next year. The elementary school they are at now is great, and we have no issues with it. She just thinks the Christian school route would be better. For context, she went to this school and loved it, and she also works there. I just don’t want to drop a couple grand a month on school.

Waste of $ unless you are doing it for religious reasons, or you are just districted to an awful school. Public schools are just as good and better academically most places. Especially K-8. Typically those teachers aren’t certified. Now there are some really good private academic high schools. But they also get to pick and choose their students too. College is expensive, so save the $ for that! 🤷🏻‍♂️😂 My son went public all the way. Stanford grad MBA and doing well. My daughter got into 3 Ivy’s and from Public schools. You will see this same thing from kids in private schools. Kids with good families that support their kids and have driven kids will do well in either setting. To me it’s the $.

I went to a private Christian school. I regretted it when I got to UGA and regret to this day. I go to church almost every Sunday.

Our kids went public to private back to public - head master was a lady when we moved to private - was really pleased with what we were getting for our $$ - then she retired and new guy came in - wasn’t worth it for what we were paying for 3 kids. I would say if your wife works there and knows if you get bang for your $$$ - then yes - would add that the quality of your public school system matters a lot to - ours is average at best - but having really smart kids in an average school system can work to your advantage when colleges are comparing to their peers
