[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in an UMC neighborhood with decent but sort of deteriorating public schools. They were excellent when everyone moved in to the new construction area in the 80s, but declined as we grew up. There was family down the block who was so ostentatious- constantly repainting the outside of their house, over the top landscaping, flashy cars, and really expensively outfitted kids, and I did sort of wonder about their values more broadly. They obviously couldn’t afford to move to a larger home, but always tried to give off the appearance of being wealthy. I found it strange that it didn’t also apply to their kids education. Anyway this is kind of a silly conversation bc it’s essentially stating that everyone with the means to do so should opt out of public school. [/quote]
