Let's not forget the VIOLENCE the kids are exposed to in public schools! Crazy adults aside, the undisciplined children practically run the schools. My kids got lots of examples, from kids pouncing on their lunches and outright stealing their desserts (no, they never stole the nutritious stuff) to having teeth knocked out on the playground (the school didn't even bother calling home to let us know) to listening to teachers spend the day yelling at the kids to try to establish some kind of order. They would come home sick from the stress of witnessing this type of behavior and begging to go back to homeschool. No more trying out the public schools for us. This is an 'exemplary' public school in a small Texas town. I understand the city schools are worse.
