RE: Home Taught: Perspectives in Educational Philosophy: What's wrong with public schools?

Tucker Miller responds to Steve:

C'mon -- Good old, government-operated North Stokes served an entire generation of Brenneises well... I'd say. I feel that as far as mathematics and physics go, David Parker was a real asset for those of us lucky enough to be in his classes.
My question is as follows: what exactly were we indoctrinated in at NSH, and what should we have been educated about?

And maybe this is just a fluke, but in my experiences, private/parochial school products that I have had dealings with haven't always been the most intelligent/personable/sociable/ capable/etc./etc./etc. They're usually just from wealthy backgrounds. But that's just my take.
