even they are now adopting testing procedures. Most are going through ACT.


There is a place for that absolutely....however the greatest thing about private schools is that I can choose whichever one I want. Some do have unique characteristics and programs that prepare young people for college and even life after college.

In the public school system, at least in LA, for some reason they don't do this....I'm not sure if they can't do it or just won't.

Bottom line is I'd rather not have my child sitting somewhere wasting her time listening to some 25 yr old, simply working to get their next raise, regurgitate something that a theatre major from California thought would be a good idea to test high school students on.

Don't get me wrong. I am not disagreeing with your decision. I work for the public school system at a private school (long story).
I plan to send my kid to a private Catholic school in the area. Like another poster said. Private schools come with their own unique issues.
