[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An average private you're paying tuition so your kid doesn't have to interact with the bottom third or half of an average public.[/quote] This isn't the case in our experience with NW DC schools in DCPS. In fact, our kids' big-3 private school is more diverse (racial/economic) than our local DCPS by a lot. From our perspective, a more significant consideration is that a top private school just increases the likelihood that a student "doesn't have to interact with" [b]truly disruptive kids who either wouldn't get accepted to private[/b] or will be asked to leave sooner in private than in public.[/quote] Yikes. That is what PP meant!! Your perspective on diversity is unfortunate.[/quote]
