Different poster here and I started a similar thread in recent weeks but not this one.  I do think it's a subject on many peoples' minds. [/quote]

If you’re spending 50k a year, rightfully you should have a right to know about the prospective college chances that your school has to offer. [/quote]

Most of them post their matriculation lists. Not sure exactly what more you want.

If my kid goes to what you consider a "not good" university, I'll still consider private school money well spent. Know why? Because he's happy and learning. The environment in our zoned public school was cold and chaotic. Maybe other people have better public choices but we sure didn't. So we went private and my quiet, shy, anxiety-prone child has bloomed. Worth every penny.[b] That will do more to inform the rest of his life than would going to what you consider a "good" university.[/quote][/b]

So so true. [/quote]

Agree. The metal detectors alone were worth avoiding. Now I would prefer we fix our schools. Obviously we could since we have decent elementaries. Don’t know what gives. [/quote]

Metal detectors are a good safety precaution. More schools should have them.[/quote]
