[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of kids at the low end whose grandparents pay the bills.[/quote] Not credible to claim that these kids are "at the low end" when they have family money.[/quote] They are at the low end. The tuition is gifted by grandparents. That is not family money.[/quote] DH and I live in an old, small house and drive old cars so that we can send our kids to private school. We do not qualify for aid from our school because it's a small school with an even smaller aid pool. So, our parents (both sides) created a fund that we all contribute to to make it work. The school is by far and away the best possible option for our kids so we are willing to make it work, but yes, I would say we are at the low end of the economic spectrum at our school. [/quote] What percentage of families at the “low end” of the socioeconomic spectrum also have this kind of financial safety net?[/quote] There are a lot in private schools. They are full pay therefore welcome of course.[/quote]
