Different Kinds of Schools Students Experience Affect Them
  My theme is about the different types of schools there are for kids. My first school I went to was a public elementary school near my mom’s house. That school had at least ten students in a class that made it very difficult for me to learn. Private school was my second kind of school that had four to five students per class and that made the learning so much easier. Then I went to another public school near my mom, but it was a huge middle school. The classes were too tough for me, and they didn’t have the right learning system. After that, I went to a boarding school up in Vermont and that was extremely easy. It was a great school because it had everything I like to do. The classes were one on two or even one on one. Eventually, I came to Crefeld and that so far has been the best ever. I had math problems in other schools, and now I am farther than I have ever been in math. I went from pre-algebra to algebra one in less than a week. That is the best I have ever done. Crefeld so far has been the best school out of at least five schools. That is what my life has been like in school.

Dahl's experience with schools were difficult. He went to a public school that was his first school. Then he got into to much trouble because his friends and him put a mouse in a candy jar and gave the candy storeowner a fright. Then he had to leave the public school. He went to a boarding school after two years. He then found out that it was a tough school. It was a tough school because they were extremely strict, and they punished students by hitting them with a wooden cane. That is how his school experience had to go, and he was not to happy about how he had to change schools and how hard the teachers were on them.

My paper is on what kind of schools there are for children. There are over five kinds of schools. There are private, public, boarding, charter, Christian, home schooling, as well as others. There are advantages and disadvantages for these schools. There are price advantages, different teaching methods, and on and on. There are a lot of different things different schools have.

Boarding schools normally run through 10th to 12th grade, but there are some boarding schools that run from 6th to 12th grade. Boarding schools help children learn how to make relationships, live alone, cook, exercise, and make homework fun. In boarding schools, students live in dormitories; some rooms have one to three beds. The days at a boarding school are highly structured and organized. Some boarding schools have all kinds of workshops for students. Some disadvantages boarding schools have are that students get homesick, they miss their old friends, they miss their things at home, and they miss a good family dinner. One thing that parents have problems with is how much these schools cost. On the other hand, they have great academics, athletics, socializing with others, and, of course, 24/7 supervision. Also, students will never be bored because they will always have something to do. Boarding schools are a great choice.

Private schools run through all grades, but there are some that are only upper or lower schools. Private schools have different ways to learn, and it depends on what the student's skills are. Some students need more attention than others, and some don’t need as much attention. Every private school has different ways to teach students. Private schools are different than public schools because public schools are free and private schools you have to pay tuition. Private schools have smaller classes, better books and supplies, and they can be sometimes more challenging. These schools, however, don’t have as many diverse choices in subjects. All students need to pass an exam to be accepted to the school. Private schools are a great choice if your child has trouble learning in a huge classroom.

Public schools run through every single grade, from K to 12th. Public schools are nice because they are free and parents don’t have to worry about paying for the academics. If they want to buy lunch, however, they will have to pay some money. Classes in public schools are huge; they can have from 10 to 30 students in a single class. Some public schools don’t have great academics like private or boarding schools. Public schools don’t have long winter and spring breaks like private schools. Public schools have a higher dropout rate and more violence. They are not a good suggestion if your child has trouble with communicating, learning, and issues with other students. They are sometimes a good choice but sometimes a bad one.
