[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It means a lot to me. I am not paying $50k/year for a school that has no prestige just to say my kid went to private school. I am also mindful that the name-brand alone isn't what potentially makes a difference in outcomes. If I didn't have kids who I thought would/could take advantage of the opportunities that these schools afford, I would do public or Catholic and save some money.[/quote] Yikes...... "I am not paying $50k/year for a school that has no prestige just to say my kid went to private school." Shouldn't the reason one is paying $50K/ year be because one thinks this is the best environment for one's child to grow and learn..... not because of the prestige? [/quote] NP. I don’t have a horse in this race, but people can have whatever reason they want to spend their money on private school tuition. Worry about yourself and stop trying to police other people’s motives.[/quote]
