[quote=Anonymous]Where does it get you? My daughter doesn't have to compete with 1500 other kids for resources. She not only gets an academic education, she gets an education in social service and the religion of her choice (in this case, Catholic). She gets an education that truly prepares her for college. Yes, she gets connections that will last a lifetime and may pay off in the form of employment. And because she goes to an all-girls school, she receives all this on her terms, without having to deal with the social dominance of high school males (look it up - there are all kinds of studies showing that single-sex secondary education - male and female - provides an advantage). Mostly, my daughter goes to private school because I can afford it and it's a better school than the local public high school. [/quote]
