I put my child into a private school with an excellent reputation. After 3 years of complaints(and signs) of boredom I finally enrolled her into my public school. She currently has a teacher who makes it her mission to differentiate for each child in her class, who could ask for more....and my taxes already pay for it! Close Quote
