[quote=Anonymous]I went to really crappy public schools. My high school had 3,000 kids and I fell in with the burn-out crowd. I ditched class most of the time and graduated high school with a 1.9 GPA. Worked for ten years at shit jobs then put myself through a third-tier state university with my savings. DH grew up in a very poor, developing country. Went to private schools - but it was very cheap and NOBODY went to state-run schools because teachers never showed up to teach! Came to US with the proverbial $300.00 and lots of ambition. Fast forward - we're both successful entrepreneurs who clawed our way up and made some money. We send our kids to private because we can, and i refuse to have them get lost in a sea of 2,000 high school kids like I did. Just my bias. They'd probably do just fine in our public, but I want to give them a different experience than what I had.[/quote]
