Students at private schools do better for one reason. The parents. The parents care enough about their kids education they actually pay for their kids education and they take an active interest in that education and they make their kids do homework and study. They are motivated involved parents

The teachers might not be better but the parents are involved and care.

Different kids are raised differently. I remember when I was in school - some kids came from good families that taught them to respect their elders. And some of the kids came from bad families - those students would yell at the teacher, they'd argue, etc... You can tell how someone is raised by the way they behave in public.


Those bad students were a disruption. My parents taught me to respect my elders - i never even considered it an option to get up and yell at my teacher.


I still remember one day I walked into a class in high school and took a seat - I guess some mexican gangster girl had that seat and she just came up to me and started screaming at me 'THATS MY CHAIR! GET THE F OFF!' LOL - I wasn't afraid but I was so embarrased, i got up and went to the other seat. Who the hell goes irate like that? I went to a good school but they allowed bad kids to come.

What government actually controls the internet? Not one. Sure they can try to do things but the internet circumvents the attempts that are made.

One only has to look at how miserably the country of North Africa "controlled" the internet. And the rest of the nations are no better.

Even China fails and it makes the best effort to force something ephemeral as the net to bend to its wishes.

Websites and web tools come and go as those the best service with the best price rank supreme.

There are also competitive public schools that require intense competition.

In NYC, there are 9 elite "specialized" high schools that accept maybe 400 students from 10,000 or more applications. Acceptance is based on an admission test, as well as in an audition (at some schools).

This also exists at the junior high level as well (to a lesser extent)


My daughter goes to one of those elite schools.

Competition among children for an education paid for by the money stolen from their parents by government

What are you saying? That it's not competitive when they accept 600 out of 10-20k?

And how is it stolen ? I pay taxes gladly and my taxes pay for the school.

Really not seeing your point.
