Attending a private school you The public school setting is typically more diverse than private schools. For children that come from poorer backgrounds may not have the opportunity to attend a private school. So for the public school it's advantage in this aspect is it introduces students to students of various races and different backgrounds. Therefore, it pays a lot of money out of your own pocket to send your child to a private school when you can send them to a public school and receive the same, if not better education at a less expensive cost. .
To a parent with children that are considered special needs, such as me, puts us at a loss, because we wouldn't be able to send our students to a private schools. Just imagine having more than one child, one is special needs, and you want to send them to private school. Well you it would be hard because you would be sending one child to school for free and then you would have to pay for the other child to go to school. "Most private schools do not have special education programs or teachers trained to work with that student population, so therefore they do not have to accept children with special needs. "When it comes to offering extra-curricular sports and clubs, academic support, and better supplies and learning tools, public schools have the edge. Why? Most public schools are simply bigger than private schools, and have enough students to pull off a science fair or power a chorus or computer club. What's more, federal and state laws require public schools to provide diagnostic and disability services. Public schools are more likely to offer gifted and talented and remedial programs, too (Baby Center)." Unfortunately, private schools do not offer students the opportunity to play sports. Needless to say, I feel special needs students would be better cared for and children that would like to play sport would have a better chance at a public school.
