Is a Private HS Really Better than Public?

I think it all depends on the area you live in. For example, the school district I live in offers all sorts of magnet programs as well as the normal high schools. I go to a magnet school that has about 1000 students who were selected through an application and lottery process. When it comes to extracurricular competitions such as debate and robotics, our school is usually right up there (and sometimes above) the top private schools in the city.

There are many options available everywhere. Just look around and see whats available before you go spending as much money on high school as you potentially would on college.
