I did both, and I must admit - I learned a hell of a lot more in public than private school. I also did a brief stint in Catholic school. That's an offensive joke. Those things should be fucking closed. They actually work toward making your kid ignorant.
I agree with Spanky. They should make teachers accountable on a bonus system. A good teacher ought to be paid a shitload; the sort who hide in the job to get maximum benefits without stress should be fired. I can think no person more appalling than one who'd waste children's formative years phoning in a job because he's too fucking lazy, gutless and creative to make it in the private sector.
Everybopdy, in every job, should be reviewed yearly and compensated based on production. Why any sector of our society - govt or private - escapes that necessary weeding process is beyond me. How the hell else shall we evolve? I have to fight for money every day. Make the goddamned state employees and teachers do the same. If they can't make it, good. More money for everyone who can.
