[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Without exposure to socioeconomic diversity, kids grow up to be entitled and selfish. Education comes in many forms. [/quote]

This is actually one reason why we went private!

There’s far more socioeconomic diversity at our private school (many kids on scholarships) vs at our previous public school where the families had to afford a million dollar plus house in order to be zoned for the school. [/quote]

Similar experience here.  Our public school is almost all white and middle class, and was dominated completely by a cliquish group of white evangelical Christian women who bullied everyone while talking about Jesus and Bible study.  We went private, in no small part because of this incredibly oppressive atmosphere, and our private had more racial diversity as well as a strong emphasis on social justice.  And needless to say, the parents were way nicer.  We have to go back to public next year, and I'm not looking forward to it.[/quote]
