I'm still in a public high school. People tell me that New York has a very good public school system, but as the people who tell me this are invariably public school teachers or officials, I'm not sure how much of that I believe. New York students take a lot of important-sounding exams and then forget a lot of material, it seems.
I'm torn between a state school right now and a Catholic private school-- leaning towards the state one, as it's smaller, less expensive, and I've visited it before.
