[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Data from a meeting with had with the head of school.

I say this for 2 reasons:
1. mainstreams privates do have neurodiverse kids. 
2. It is CRAZY how many kids get dx now. Kids on so many meds. I know it's necessary for the most part (certainly for mine). But is it really a neurodiversity if half the population has it? Idk exactly what my thought is but would love to hear others thoughts...[/quote]

It's not half the population. It's half the population of your school. Which was probably chosen by parents for those particular children as a place that will be suitable for neurodiverse kids. [/quote]

This.  Some people put their kids in private because they’re ultra wealthy and can afford it without blinking an eye.  Others put their kids in private besides they have needs that are beyond what a less resourced public  school could give them. [/quote]

Where tf is this narrative that the DC elite privates are actually 2e schools coming from? As the mom of an actually 2e kid who *wouldn’t even be admitted to Lab*, please, tell me more. We have the money. [/quote]

Do you think people are shelling out 40k per year per kid for smaller class sizes because their kids are thriving in a public school environment ? [/quote]
