[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are people talking about private schools? The OP is referring to faculty at the college level. And yes, some schools offer preference (much like legacy) to the children of faculty and staff. It is a legitimate hook. The child of a k-12 educator, not a hook. [/quote] I mentioned those private schools because they have many faculty parents. Most Penn profs aren’t sending their kids to Philly public schools. Certain private high schools are popular with faculty parents.[/quote] Lots of UPenn profs are sending their kids to Penn Alexander School for k-8, a Philly public school. It started as an open-enrollment public school but now it’s a lottery for those who live in the school zone.[/quote]
