[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you're truly "middle class" you shouldn't be attending this school in the firs place. Face it. Private school is for rich people, period. Don't believe anyone who tries to tell you otherwise.[/quote] Garman admitted so much at last year's state of the school speech - he presented figures showing that ~20-30 years ago a typical private school could be afforded by the top 3 quintiles of income, and the distribution of students reflected that. Now, by comparison, it's affordable only to the top quintile and some of the 2nd quintile, again reflected in student populations. I guess his stated concern isn't reflected in actual action.[/quote] What action would you take to address the issue, while also facing increased insurance, health insurance, benefits and salary demands? Should they cut the music program? Latin? Ceramics? What choices would you make to address the issue?[/quote]
