True... but a point against the public... they aren't as concerned about the quality of education your individual child gets, or the conditions around them, more the education quality of the whole (with the exception of the top 10% and the bottom 10% because they are paid extra to supply programs to them).

On the other hand, a private school cares deeply about the individual student since they are expected to fulfill a service that is being paid handsomely for. Private schools would not exist if public schools were perceived to be doing an excellent job to the standards many people expect and desire.

Its not a black and white argument.
