I believe the results have been remarkably similar as has been reported in a number of non-biased studies. If you compare all private schools to all public schools then I believe private institutions have the edge. There is also the issue in religious schools of science education, which can vary greatly depending upon the worldview of the institution as a number of them do not teach evolution.
Here's a question: Is the No Child Left Behind act helping or hindering education in this country?
