[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] By that logic anything that is fee based is discriminatory. [/quote] It also completely ignores the fact that the “best” public schools are in incredibly wealthy zip codes. That’s it’s own form of discrimination. [/quote] Or, wait for it, everyone in those wealthy zip codes is serious about education, and kids do better when surrounded by others serious by education. Private allows one to select those traits even more specifically. There’s no reason everyone couldn’t be that way. They just prioritize differently. (And before someone trots out the single mom working multiple jobs story, some of the most serious people I know about education are in that boat. They drove home the importance of taking it seriously. And some of those folks even wind up at private schools, on aid, because they had the drive to improve and spent effort to make it happen.)[/quote]
