Cindy Hamilton Depends on where you live too. We grew up in Philadelphia. Fortunately, our parents sent us to parochial school, paid for by the members of the church through their donations. Of course they paid taxes that went to the public schools also. Our Catholic school system was rated in the top 5 in the country. The public school system was rated in the bottom 10. We moved when our kids were in 5th and 7th grade. The public school system in our town in CT is pretty good, better than the Catholic school that is now closed. Our kids went to the public school here. |

That's a specific school where they learn the one thing they are going to use.
