[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a Wilson grad. I did MUCH better than the kids from Big 3 I knew at Ivy where I went to college. I know because I was Phi Beta Kappa and Summa. And they had no honors or distinction. And won writing awards. And now professional writer. Others I know from HS are doing just fine. They mostly now make more money than me. Connections, chosen professions, etc. So depends on what your criteria for life is.

Those parents who want to bemoan how public schools - esp JR - ruin children seem to have so much cognitive dissonance that they need to constantly argue and justify a world view where paying big bucks for Big 3s or 5s or whatever is worth it? Tinged with racism???

Basically look at the kids’ advantages and parents’ backgrounds (not income or at least not just income) for kids at any of the schools. Sociology 101. Admittedly a gut class.  [/quote]

Dude.  Your writing in this post is borderline illiterate.  [/quote]

+1.  Hard to believe you won any writing awards at all.[/quote]
