Ever heard of home schooling? Smartest kids in the U.S. in my opinion. They never set foot in public schools. They go on vacation when they see fit. As did we.


Got some actual data to prove it? SAT scores vs. public and private schools? Ivy League and top notch college admissions rates vs. public and private schools?

If not, what are you basing your opinion on?

The children I've met? Does that qualify?
