[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We did private for a while in DMV area, what you don't see in a tour of the facilities is that the schools, necessarily really, listen to and seek out, big donor parents. How you get on the board of trustees is a function of the money you give or bring in to the school. This is so different from public that those who only know public can't begin to understand how it perverts relationships throughout the school community. It takes some years at a school to see how true this is.[/quote] +1. I went to a private school in a smaller town. If your parents were rich, you got away with whatever. If your parents were regular tuition paying parents, you had to follow the rules. When you are a kid, you aren't really savvy enough to recognize this, particularly if you are not "in the know." It was gross.[/quote]
