“The students appreciate how excited the teachers are about their discipline and their teaching and that excitement is contagious. The students sense that their teachers are not just going through the motions.”
A big plus of independent schools is the breadth of opportunities and the exposure to lots of different things that you can’t necessarily get in the public schools.
There’s a lot of banter out there about educating the whole child but I think independent schools really do it well. There’s an emphasis on social development, athletic development, artistic development.
“It’s almost like the school is another home, a personal space you have outside of your home.”
