This is why, despite everything people say about shielding your kids, I will not be putting our children in public school.
I know it can happen in private school, but the incident rate is far lower.
Not the kids faults. Too many shitty parents. Obviously in this scenario the kid is at fault, but its the parents/school systems fault for letting it get this far.

Accountability has to extend beyond the individual to the district that ignored the warning signs.

If your kid can get into the magnet program then public schools are better than private in TN

Are the schools actually better or are they better because you don’t have to pay tuition? I am genuinely curious.

By a lot of metrics they are the best schools in each city. By some metrics the private schools are best. At the very least those public schools are on the very same level as the top private schools
ETA: for example US News ranks the top high school in Nashville, Memphis, Knoxville, and Chattanooga as the public magnet high school in each city. Better than any private school. Great public schools in cities definitely exist.
