[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Aren’t the whole point of private schools so people can avoid a certain kind of kid? Of course racial diversity can be “acceptable” if that kid can fit into a certain mold… but many private school parents send their kids to avoid a specific type of kid (most always from a very poor background and likely abusive home). People openly admit this on DCUM because it’s anonymous. People threaten to move all the time to escape specific schools that have a lot of at risk kids. The annoying part of all of it are the people who claim to care about equity and equality and virtue signal about it but then don’t walk the walk. I know too many of them. [/quote]

You guys think too much of yourselves. [size=18]Having less money does not mean that your household is likely to be abusive. [/size]Just because someone comes from a lower socioeconomic status doesn’t mean they need more help. There are plenty of students that lack means that have the talent and aptitude to succeed at these schools. And just because one can afford to pay in full doesn’t mean that your child is more capable. If you know anything about admissions in higher education, full pays tends to have inferior academic credentials than students that receive tuition discounts. [/quote]

Actually it does- statistically [/quote]
