THIS. DH and I are both from Baltimore, though I moved by high school. He went to a Baltimore private and when we go out, he runs into so many people from school and the first question people ask me is "where did you go to school?" and they do not mean college. Because I went to a public high school I am def a second class citizen in their eyes even though DH and I both went to the same prestigious undergrad and grad schools. It's hysterical. [/quote]

They are just trying to make themselves feel better that their parents wasted all that money on their elementary to high school years and they still ended up at the same college and grad school as you did with your measly public school education.[/quote]

Not really. They don't care about public schools. It's not a competition thing. Nor is it educational. It's a social thing. Gilman/Roland Park - Vanderbilt - T Rowe Price - house in Ruxton is more of a statement than public - Harvard - head of NGO in DC.

Mind you, with the rapidly escalating private school tuitions some of of them are even being forced to send the precious kiddies to public elementary schools and deferring private till 6th grade. Shocker. [/quote]
