[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My question is what do middle class families do in this area public is declining but private even with aid is unaffordable so what do they do?[/quote] MOVE[/quote] Yeah. To where? All the good pyramids are prohibitively expensive.[/quote] Do some research. You complain that private schools are too expensive and it’s not fair that other people use them (but then the poster did decide to use them so the poster is complaining about themself?). If all the “good pyramids” are too expensive you live somewhere else. It’s not rocket science. Or you vote out the school board and local government that keeps letting this slide. The answers are obvious. People voted for this over and over again and then are upset when what everyone complains about finally affects them too. “It’s not fair”. Yeah. Where have you been all this time?[/quote] Live somewhere else as different pyramid or different metro area?[/quote] Either one. [/quote] Or a smaller house. Or a rental. One choice would be the very best educational pyramid but make other trade offs - an older, simpler car; a smaller mortgage or rent obligation. I see these giant houses out in the middle of nowhere with cruddy schools and I see the trade offs those parents make. And then they complain about their public schools. [/quote] You don't know that the "best public schools" aren't so great until you are in them. It's hard to really know about any school, public or private, until your kid is there.[/quote]
