[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People pay for private school for the privilege of excluding certain groups of people like those with a lower socioeconomic status or less of a focus on education. Most of the private schools in the DMV were founded as a way for white people to get around anti-segregation laws. [/quote] Read the post right above yours. Your assumptions about why people switch to private are wrong. [/quote] a lot of people pick private for the smaller class sizes, too. [/quote] But there is always a DCUM poster who needs to baselessly accuse people of racist intent where none exists. Most people want or give their children the best education that they can afford. [b]And that sure as heck isn’t a public school in the DMV.[/b][/quote] Well the best schools in the DMV are publics. The MoCo magnets, TJ, the Ws etc...only the top 3 or so privates are comparable to the Ws, none comes close to the MoCo magnets or TJ.[/quote]
