Experience w/private mainstream school?

My DS is 5 and is going to be transferred from spec ed pre-k to mainstream Kindergarten at a different school. Went to visit it today and it is beautiful, state-of-the art but very crowded. DS had issue with going to visit it (even though we were there for 15 min.)
while classes were in session. No one in the halls, no noise and he still didn't do well. He is not a child who acts out, he holds it in and becomes anxious.

Thinking about private school with smaller classes but will be sacrificing public services (except speech). Long story... but wondering if anyone left public school for mainstream private and results they had.

THanks.
