[quote=Anonymous]If you’re a well resourced UMC white family with no hooks, your kid will do better on a per capita basis coming out of a DC public/charter school than one of the brand-name DC privates. At the privates, your kid is “competing” for college slots with kids whose families are legit very wealthy or connected. Your kid has a better shot coming out of JR or Walls all things equal. That said, the network your child develops at an elite private school may serve them better in their career. [/quote]
