[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And, in comparison to other privates, Lab School gives next to nothing in scholarship money to applicants who don't receive any public funding. It is absolutely disgraceful. Signed, Parent who applied for financial aid and was denied and went elsewhere and was offered a nice package.[/quote] Financial aid isn't really part of their business model. Public funding is. When they say that 26% of their students come from DCPS, what they omit to say is that most of the rest of their students come from other public systems. The big ones are Montgomery and Prince Georges counties, you'll see MCPS and PGCPS buses going down MacArthur Boulevard every morning. So to the extent that this give-away helps reduce the burden on taxpayers of special education, most of the benefit is going to taxpayers in other jurisdictions. [/quote]
