If you are wealthy would you send your kids to a W school over private?

Does not want spoiled kids. Good for him. He is worth like 100 million and is giving it all away to people who need it.

Plenty of spoiled kids go to public school.

Sending your kid to a top private school will not necessarily spoil them.

I don't mind "spoiling" my kid with private school. There's a lot worse things to spoil you kid with.

Wealthy private school parent here. Yep, I admit I spoiled my children with a top notch education. I’m not spoiling them with designer clothes, the newest tech devices or fancy cars. I like to think that I have my priorities straight!

And this is exactly why I send my kid to private school...so they are surrounded by families like yours who prioritize education over material things like cars, clothes, homes, and vacations.

Private school families - prioritizing education

Public school families - Prioritizing ????

Prioritizing education has nothing to do with private or public. People opt of different options due to various reasons.

eh. most private school parents send their kids to private schools because they can, not because the "prioritize" education. Do these rich people think all these public school Asian American parents don't prioritize their kids' education? If they thought private school was the best, they'd scrimp and save to send their kids to private school.

Plenty of Asian Americans do just that.

? define "plenty"? Oh, you mean the handful of token Asians you see in private schools?

please.

Or you mean the half the kids in my daughter’s private school class who aren’t white?

Do you understand that "not white" doesn't mean only Asian?

Please post which school/grade, and % of Asian students in the grade that shows "half your daughter's private school class is Asian". Thanks.

Thanks, I’m well aware. I’m part-Asian myself.

I don't know that you actually do, since you stated "half the kids in my daughter’s private school class who aren’t white" in a discussion about Asian students in private school.

So, again, please post the private school and % of Asians to show that "half the class is Asian". Thanks.

I didn’t say half the class is Asian. I said half the class isn’t white.

And I’m not risking outing myself by naming my kid’s school, but if you look at the websites of most of the private schools in this area, they’re about 40% students of color. They don’t usually break it down further than that.

Sidwell: 57%
Norwood: 40%
Holton: 40%
GDS: 40%
Landon: 41%

Niche rated Jackson Reed with an A+ for diversity while Sidwell got an A. So please tell us again that you’re only there for the diversity.

You’re the one who said private schools only have token minorities. Doesn’t really seem the case when they’re getting such high diversity scores.

ok, but this particular discussion was about Asians in private school.

Someone stated that only private school parents prioritize education.

I stated that Asian parents also prioritize education, probably more than any other group, and that most Asian parents with means still send their kids to public school.

Then you or someone stated that "plenty of Asian parents" send their kids to private.

So I asked, "define plenty".

To which you responded: "half the kids in your kid's class is non white". That doesn't answer the question. You get an F there.

Then I asked you to post the % of Asian students in the class, to which you responded, "I didn't say Asian". So, again, you didn't understand the question. Another F.


So, once again, Asian parents, who prioritize education more so than any other group, largely send their kids to public school.

Hopefully, that was clear.

Yeah, no.

Given that 90% of kids go to public school, the majority of any demographic group sends their kids to public school. That doesn’t mean anything except that most people can’t afford private school.

They probably don't break it down because they don't want to show the actual "diversity".

They could define that 40% including Middle Eastern, white Argentinian. Without further breakdown, it's easier to hide the actual diversity.

That someone would be the federal government. According to the Census Bureau white includes Middle Easterners.

The private school could classify them as "non white", however. They are not obligated to present the demographics the way a public school does.

So, again, please post the private school and % of Asians to show that "half the class is Asian". Thanks.

I didn’t say half the class is Asian. I said half the class isn’t white.

And I’m not risking outing myself by naming my kid’s school, but if you look at the websites of most of the private schools in this area, they’re about 40% students of color. They don’t usually break it down further than that.

Sidwell: 57%
Norwood: 40%
Holton: 40%
GDS: 40%
Landon: 41%

ok, but this particular discussion was about Asians in private school.

Someone stated that only private school parents prioritize education.

I stated that Asian parents also prioritize education, probably more than any other group, and that most Asian parents with means still send their kids to public school.

Then you or someone stated that "plenty of Asian parents" send their kids to private.

So I asked, "define plenty".

To which you responded: "half the kids in your kid's class is non white". That doesn't answer the question. You get an F there.

Then I asked you to post the % of Asian students in the class, to which you responded, "I didn't say Asian". So, again, you didn't understand the question. Another F.


So, once again, Asian parents, who prioritize education more so than any other group, largely send their kids to public school.

Hopefully, that was clear.

Yeah, no.

Given that 90% of kids go to public school, the majority of any demographic group sends their kids to public school. That doesn’t mean anything except that most people can’t afford private school.

? a PP stated that private school parents are the only ones prioritizing education.

I stated Asian parents with means who also prioritize education send their kids to public.

That means that Asian parents with means who also prioritize education send their kids to public school.

Can you provide proof of that claim about rich Asians?

Look at the number of Asians living in wealthy zip codes here, then look at how many kids go to public school vs private.

Can you provide proof that there are "plenty" of Asians in private schools?

Does not want spoiled kids. Good for him. He is worth like 100 million and is giving it all away to people who need it.

Plenty of spoiled kids go to public school.

Sending your kid to a top private school will not necessarily spoil them.

I don't mind "spoiling" my kid with private school. There's a lot worse things to spoil you kid with.

Wealthy private school parent here. Yep, I admit I spoiled my children with a top notch education. I’m not spoiling them with designer clothes, the newest tech devices or fancy cars. I like to think that I have my priorities straight!

And this is exactly why I send my kid to private school...so they are surrounded by families like yours who prioritize education over material things like cars, clothes, homes, and vacations.

Private school families - prioritizing education

Public school families - Prioritizing ????

Prioritizing education has nothing to do with private or public. People opt of different options due to various reasons.

eh. most private school parents send their kids to private schools because they can, not because the "prioritize" education. Do these rich people think all these public school Asian American parents don't prioritize their kids' education? If they thought private school was the best, they'd scrimp and save to send their kids to private school.

Plenty of Asian Americans do just that.

? define "plenty"? Oh, you mean the handful of token Asians you see in private schools?

please.

Or you mean the half the kids in my daughter’s private school class who aren’t white?

Do you understand that "not white" doesn't mean only Asian?

Please post which school/grade, and % of Asian students in the grade that shows "half your daughter's private school class is Asian". Thanks.

Thanks, I’m well aware. I’m part-Asian myself.

I don't know that you actually do, since you stated "half the kids in my daughter’s private school class who aren’t white" in a discussion about Asian students in private school.

That doesn’t tell me how many rich Asians opt for public schools.

That someone would be the federal government. According to the Census Bureau white includes Middle Easterners.

The private school could classify them as "non white", however. They are not obligated to present the demographics the way a public school does.

And Middle Easterners aren’t part of what you consider “true diversity”? WTAF?
