[QUOTE="jmoney, post: 1880751, member: 24661"] I grew up in dallas, and the difference between the public and private schools can be pretty extreme as far as the education is concerned. However, when it comes time for college if you plan on applying to a state school it really doesn't meant much because of the top %10 rule. I don't really know much about the public education system here in oklahoma, but if the private schools offer a higher curriculum, its worth it. I blew through undergrad with minimal effort mostly due to the fact that everything in the first three years I had already done in high school. I know if I stay in oklahoma and raise a family it is something I would seriously investigate. As the poster above mentioned sometime those schools are for kids that got the boot from public schools, however some are academically focused and manage to not get suckered in by the parents of bad kids with lots of $$$ [/QUOTE]
