Being sick enough typically meant spending the day laying in bed, alternately shivering and burning, drifting in and out of sleep, occasionally puking, and that was still preferable to spending the day at school.

It is possible!
I went to a preschool called a Montessori school. Montessori systems encourage learning through play and are based on the idea that children's natural curiosity can be used to help them learn. It was a good fit!
Unfortunately then I switched to kindergarten elsewhere and while I was really excited to go learn at school , instead I got in trouble for being unable to sit still or listen to boring didactic instruction and school became a much worse experience.

Perfect opportunity for the "dead fish" classroom management technique
It's still early but my kid loves school.
I also, as a poor, unpopular student, didn't have a horrible time at any point in my k12 education. I'm not saying things haven't worsened or that they were ever perfect but the idea that the public school system is evil or something (other than teaching pro-US slanted "history" and the weird pledge) is not something I encounter outside of random Hexbear threads, even amongst people with generally progressive views. (Not counting here.)
This place is weirdly doomer about schools.

"Thesis, antithesis, synthesis!"
it's a good goal and is crucial to any potential revolutionary program. schools are basically too rotten for reform though, it's very much a tear down everything and start from scratch approach which is needed.
Doesn’t matter if it’s public or private, schools fucking suck. I have to go back to one now and it feels like a fucking cage.
