In many of the chapters of the //“Lifespan Development”// textbook, one consistent theory is the quality of care. This care includes; the time, style and effort put into a child’s cognitive and physical development at home. Quality of care makes a difference as to how rounded and functional that child will be in his tasks of everyday living. An article on “Private Education” from //“CAPE”// [|**//http://www.capenet.org/benefits4.html//**] seems to be applying the same concept in the private schools classrooms of elementary and middle school children.

According to the article by //“Council for American Private Education”, (CAPE),// parents who send their children to private schools believe it’s like an extension of what they teach at home. For example, the private schools embrace their ethical values and religious beliefs. These parents believe that private schools also provide a safe and orderly environment for their children’s development.

==== The article also claims that private schools’ students have a better disposition in life than public schools. According to their data that was taken from, //“National Center for Education Statistics” (NCES),// private school students have higher scores on standardize tests and is more likely go on to college. It also pointed out that, the academic gaps between minority and majority students are smaller. Private education is beneficial to the public’s well being, seems to be //CAPE’S// overall claim.
