I was just the opposite.
We switched from Private to Public because my son wasn't doing very well in English and they nickel and dimed for you everything you was worth. We switched him to public and the C's are now A's in English. His teacher last year put him in a class with some one on one tutoring and it worked out for him. We just didn’t think our kids were the education that we were paying for. ($3,800 yr)
My son was acting up in class especially after recess, well math was after recess and that was/is his strongest subject. After the switch to public they challenged him in math and he hasn't had any behavior reports all of last year and this year so far. After he's done the 5th grade lesson he moves onto his more challenging stuff. He’s doing 3rd 9 week’s 6th grade math right now. That's why he was being bad in class, he was bored to death.
Kids get bullied in school both whether public are private, they just go about it in a different way. It’s more of who has the most money type of thing.
As far as discipline in the public school I think it’s better, they really don’t play and if you act up you get sent to the PASS program which is in an in school suspension. Private school your discipline depends on how much money your parents give the school.
