Exactly. My kids attended private and parochial schools. Parents were super involved. One year, one of my children decided to try public school, it was decent, so I relight, so I said ok. The public high school? On parent/teacher night hardly any parents showed up, while the teachers stood at their doors smiling and waiting. It was sad. She went back to her private school in less than a year, her choice. The kids were awful, too

my youngest did the same the start of 10th grade. we took her out after about a month and half. they did NOTHING. math was about the only subject remotely challenging. more play days than anything because the "band would go around to the elementary schools to play so didn't have enough students for class." biology consisted of coloring a human body with crayons. the admin blamed the jr high for not preparing them esp. english. she did make some friends there,though.
