[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don’t seem to understand, private schools need the rich families to contribute to their operations. With these families private schools offer several slots to low income, diversity candidates. Generic upper middle class families like yours are not interesting to them. They provide neither money nor diversity.[/quote] They can still pay the tuition. The schools want robust lower schools and that is where the rich families come into play. Like many of our peers we couldn't afford the tuition for elementary years especially when it's much easier to find a nice local public elementary school. Eight years later we have progressed in careers and income and asset growth, and now we can afford the tuition. And that is a big part of why there is greater interest in 9th grade. [/quote]
