[quote=Anonymous]I find it strange how many people thinkit's relevant to define themselves as old money as a badge of pride, unless it is the same poster who just interjects it constantly.

I[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a class thing OP. If you come from the upper middle class or above, it would be horrid to send your kid to a public school. If you are an upward bound striver, then you will aim for a "good" public school in the white suburbs.[/quote]\

This couldn't be more wrong.[/quote]

Haha, +1. Top poster doesn't understand the US class system at all. [/quote]

I don't know... They make a pretty solid argument.[/quote]

I come from an old money DC family.  Went to a big 3.  Kids going public (granted MoCo, not DC).  Couldn't stand the parents, frankly, and the neighborhood feel of the school is awesome and something I really missed as a kid.[/quote]

It's strange. I'm always surprised by how many MoCo families send their kids to the big 3.[/quote]

That's because under Leggett, our school system is going down the toilet. Term limits now! [/quote][/quote]
