[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If these schools were receiving public funds it would be another matter...but they are not....they are private, NOT PUBLIC schools. There isn't any reason that DC residents should feel like these schools are their for them.[/quote] you just dont get it do you? These schools are receiving public funds in an indirect way by being tax exempt. Lose the tax exempt status and educate whomever you want, that is all we are saying.[/quote] I don't think YOU get it. The reason they receive tax-exempt status is because they are educational facilities, not because of their geography. Other tax-exempt entities have no geography requirement, so why should schools?[/quote]
