Public vs. private school

The controversy between public school and private schools is an ongoing debate. Issues arise concerning the authenticity of public education and the moral discrepancies of private schools. The affordability of public school becomes the deciding choice for students and parents when choosing between the two. Unfortunately, the government funding for private schools allows the government to make drastic changes to curriculum, extracurricular activities, teachers, etc. In response to the difficulties some public schools face private schools have become a popular choice for students. Private schools are more beneficial than public schools because they are not affected by government involvement and funding.
A common problem in the American public school system is space. In more than fifty percent of American public schools the ratio is 22:1. Recently, budget cuts in the American public school system have increased classes mostly impart to less teachers. These budget cuts have had a snowball affect down to the available education professional jobs. With such large class sizes many student do not receive necessary individualized learning with their teachers. As a result, students fall behind because teachers are unable to be as attentive to their learning shortcomings. When some teachers are let go, other teachers are forced to teach more classes and spend less time making sure everyone understand and more time just trying to keep all the children up to date. In Private Schools in America the student to teacher ratio is fifteen to one in more than fifty percent of schools. In private school the student pays to be there hence, they are paying the teachers. Since there is tuition in most private schools teachers are not laid off as much and there are more teachers to help students. They receive the one on one time they need.
