Prep schools offer more challenging courses than public schools do. Of the 29 AP courses recognized by colleges, prep schools typically offer 10 to 15 compared with 0 to 5 for average public schools. In conclusion, private boarding schools are far superior to public schools even with the high cost, rules, and stress. They offer a better learning environment, disciplined life style, better curriculum and activities, and immaculate facilities. They can also choose which students will attend their school.
Public schools lack a student body brimming with eager children.
In her book The Classrooms of Miss Ellen Frankfort, Confessions of a Private School Teacher, Miss Frankfort said that unless there is an advantaged public school in her community, she will send her children to a private boarding school. She appreciates that people are paid to worry for you - it's their job. Parents are assured that there is a commitment to the student and his or her future, which, if the school has anything to do with it, should be bright. Work Cited Cookson, Peter.
