[quote=Anonymous]I've worked in DC private schools for almost 20 years. With rare exception, I don't believe that schools play favorites with the children of donors. Teachers and administrators don't want to know whose kids are more privileged, and when they do get a sense of that, they bend over backwards to avoid favoritism. Remember that educators are not well-compensated themselves and have enormous empathy for less-privileged children. I suspect that the school IS trying to deal with the behavior you're describing. You're just not in the know about those conversations because it violates the student's right to privacy. [/quote]
