[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Early-posting Chicagoan here. Most of the "elite" Chicago (and Chicago 'burb) schools are public schools. In Chicago itself they are generally public magnets. [b]In the 'burbs they are generally in UMC areas but not wealthy by DC standards.[/b] So going to private school doesn't denote anything particularly special, and it's not a social scene in same way that it is here in DC. The kids that go to Lab are not any wealthier or more socially elite than the kids who go to publics. [/quote] I disagree completely. New Trier, Hinsdale central, Lake Forest, etc. - these are all just as wealthy (if not more) than the Dc burbs...[/quote]
