[quote=Anonymous]Yes, a few but not many. Most truly needy families are completely unaware that private schools might even be an option ... Just not on their cultural radar. Also, their children were not given very possible advantage growing up (nutrition, cultural enrichment, lots of reading and verbal interaction, excellent preschool and of course connections) which makes admission tough except for the the truly gifted kids. Most schools require most FA families to pay at least 50 percent of the tuition and truly needy families by definition do not have the other half.[/quote]
