O my goodness, no. I know kids who travel back and forth across the city every day for school and are not in remedial classes or have SNs. They would do just as well or better than the bottom 20% of the kids at your school who are there because their families can pay and not because they are particularly good students. But you keep rationalizing giving FA to folks making $350-400k rather than people for whom FA would be life-changing.[/quote]

“Most truly low income kids”. I also have a hard time believing the kids you know who travel like this are truly low income and not just DCUM poor. I don’t think $350k-400k families should get aid. I am checked into reality enough to know that a full ride to an elite private only takes away 1 of many hurdles. [/quote]

Because you don’t know any of these kids and families. Because you live in a bubble of wealth. Good lord. Yes, my kids went to school with truly low income kids. How do you think you can even comment on this when you are so ignorant?
