Pros of being in a private school:

Great education
Only some are expensive
No bullies
More friends (they're less likely to move away since they paid so much money)
Lots of social experience within a group

There are bullies everywhere. You can't assume that private school has no bullies.  Why shouldn't it?

There has been some talk on the subject of "Public School VS Private School". Some people support public school, some support private school. Pardon my language, but this whole argument is a crock.

Let's OBJECTIVELY review the pros and cons. Being homeschooled, I am impartial, UNLIKE some people I could name.

Pros of being in a Public School:
Much better social experience
Useful, real world syllabus
Cheap
Can have friends

Pros of being in a Private School(aka conschools):
Ever so slightly(0.0000001%) better "education"(aka useless stuff)

Cons of being in a Public School:
NONE

Cons of being in a Private School:
Expensive
Taught useless stuff
No friends
No social experienced

Basically, a private school is useless.

Seriously, I don't want to start a flamewar here, but can ANYONE, ANYONE point out something that shows the pros of being in a conschool are even EQUAL to the cons of being in one?

I think in is this case your "impartiality" doesn't apply, as you've probably never done either public or private school.

some people ( Example: me) do better in private school, and some people do better in public school
problem solved

Ok rab... Don't rant.
Cons of being in a public school:
A. MUCH inappropriate content is exposed to you, and can possibly scar you for life.
B. The curriculum is no good. I use the same curriculum at home, and get A+ without trying.
C.Wait... I won't continue because I will start ranting on why I hate public school.

Pros of being in a Public School:
Much better social experience- Since when??
Useful, real world syllabus- That has nothing to do with Private/Public...
Cheap - Trues
Can have friends- ... Dude, get your facts right. Private school people can have just as many friends.

Pros of being in a Private School(aka conschools):
Ever so slightly(0.0000001%) better "education"(aka useless stuff)- Actually private schools often get a lot better education (not that publics don't as well, but private schools generally get better). Like the school my sister goes to is private and has the best test results in the country.

Cons of being in a Public School: Actually there are some: Not so good education and you often have less materials and stuff to work with. And often in private schools they have more trips and equipment and all that stuff.


Cons of being in a Private School:
Expensive- True
Taught useless stuff- Pff, like what??
No friends- Um, fail. Why shouldn't you have friends in a private school?!
No social experienced- Explain?

Posted my response to all your 'facts'. Seriously dude, get em right before you rant about something untrue...

I would completely disagree that public schools are bad (I go to one myself) but I'm just saying a lot of the things you said are completely incorrect and in some cases offensive to people who go to private schools...

"education"

wow



i disagree

private schools often have smaller class sizes so you can get more of a one on one environment with the teacher

depends on the school
my cousin went to a catholic private school with cliques, swearing and bullying
now she goes to another private called blake, one of the best schools around, and there's many more oppurtunities

i think that's it. privates tend to have more...experiences you can follow. in general.

like, there's animation, fine arts, photography, orchestra, choir, glee club, acting and more....we have art, band, choir, "media art".

This is is definitely not 'objective'

I think swearing would happen in most schools, private or public

well yeah but you know some people do it right in front of the teachers and don't care
some are like "nooo this will look bad on my records gotta be careful"

some of the teachers at my school swear minorly. it really just depends.

I'm at a Lutheran school.    (or christian school actually.  )
And I used to be homeschool from 2nd grade to 5th.
