sven hassell said::jump: Thanks for the info Bulldog.I can for ONCE say that there is something in the U.K.(our school system) which is better than the U.S. system.
It must be hard to raise kids in the U.S. as I for one wouldn't want my kids going to a school that had gang members or stuff like that in it so probably would have to pay a small fortune.(or I'd educate them at home).
What are the public schools like? Are they rough?
Like WarMachine said, it's pretty much a reflection of the community. You won't really see problems in rural or smaller urban area schools like you will in inner city schools.
It really depends on where you live. If you don't want your child in a croweded public school, then you don't live in a heavly over populated area.
The public education system in NC is pretty good, very few problems and education standards improve every year. MA, where I am originally from, has a good school system as well.
I went to Boston College High School (private Catholic and boys only), which was pretty expensive, but the classes were smaller and allowed for a better learning enviroment. Plus, no girls to stare at all day.:mrgreen:
