I disagree with Pgardn that the private schools in Texas are bad.

We have a very good private school in San Antonio, ST. Mary's Hall. Its excellent. But the vast majority of kids that make the switch from public to private in my 21 years of teaching are way behind. In Science anyway, in upper division classes. And I mean way, way behind. Many have never even done labs because they dont have the facilities. So I respectfully disagree in my domain.
