Mark, that answer is frivolous. Critics should be very specific on what THEY think is mainly wrong. Bad teachers? Wasteful administrators? Unproven teaching methods? Distracted parents? I mean, if you are considering a private school, I think you need one or more REASONS, not just some general idea that some private schools somewhere have higher graduation rates. If that's the only reason anyone can come up with, then they are as big a failure as the worst school. Because they don't really understand the whys of the successful school. ===== Jim Mork Longfellow Neighborhood ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Minneapolis Discussion (With No Daily Limits) FOR RESIDENTS ONLY At: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mplscivicdiscuss/?yguid=66524673 Subscribe Today! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
