[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, what you are doing is admirable. I’m not sure why people are being so snarky. There are truly some miserable people in the world and particularly on this board. I do believe rue Christiandom is about serving God, serving country/community  and serving your family. I respect your values and I also see the struggle but DH & I also struggle with wanting to allow our children to attend public schools but knowing that the lottery isn’t equitable. In fact, if you head over to the private school board you’ll see the latest thread about the WashPo private school scandals.

Unfortunately, Christ calls us to be light even when the world is wicked and willing to trample on others to ensure their “worldly success”, neglecting their own spiritual malnourishment.  [/quote]

People are being snarky because it doesn't necessarily benefit the school and the other children to have one more high-income preschooler.  If you do a ton of volunteer work or keep your kid there into the testing grades, then you're making a difference.  But I don't see how attending preschool or even 1st or K WOTR moves the needle at all.  Unless your school is really awful.[/quote]
