Is There a Difference Between Public and Private Schools?

A lot of private schools are following my philosophy as a matter of fact, most of them are. They trust the kids, respect them, give them a lot of independence, allow them to collaborate and treat them with kindness. And so i think that the private schools are doing a great job. Public schools need to do the same thing. 95 % of american kids are in public school. We need all kids to be treated with trust and respect... it will make a huge difference as they grow up and become members of a democratic society.
