[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The king of STEM around here is TJ - public and test-in. Judging by the number of Intel semi finalists and finalists, no other school comes close. Not sure why STEM is being discussed on the private school forum. [b]For STEM, public schools rule. We all know private school is for producing well rounded, liberal artsy types. [/b] No. Not a fad. [/quote] Do you think it's because private schools can be afforded by families with money? So the students who are more likely to go into STEM fields as a way to try climb the SES ladder with well paid STEM jobs come from working or lower SES backgrounds (eg, immigrants) and go to free public school? [/quote] DD attended private--however; she prefers "free public school" for academics (STEM) and social.[/quote]
