[quote=Anonymous]I get what you are thinking. My son's pressure cooker public is better on many dimensions than my mediocre public school, but it is an unforgiving place. That in turn makes the kids less creative, less interesting, and less likely to take risks. I was in school in the late seventies/early 80s - a time when funding was really low, schools were cutting back, and morale was low among the teachers. My son won't get into an ivy like I did. If I could I'd send him to an ivy in the 80s, which is impossible. The challenges to getting in have made the kids who do more uniform.[/quote]
