I attended public schools my whole life and I must say that I am grateful for the education I received from my teachers. I think people tend to criticize public schools and the education that students receive there. I would not send my kids to a private school because I feel that learning starts at home and if I raise my kids right and give them a strong foundation, I won't have too many problems with them.
I also learned to deal with various situations that I would have not encountered had I attended a private school.
I am happy I had the opportunity to attend a school where I did not ge asked ignorant questions.
I attended an all black high school and grade school.
I don't think any one should be an adminstrator in a school district and not send his/her child to that school if they live in that district. They don't have that much stake in the district.
I think people who are curious about public school might want to actually check them out for your self. You never know what you might find.
