[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We can afford the 9K tuition (with FA) but it’s still extra money we could save if we do public. However, we see so many academic benefits from Catholic in addition to the lovely close knit community, smaller teacher/student ratio and how the school embraces other religions (despite teaching from the Catholic perspective of course). Public would be considered by many a “strong” one but class sizes are in the large side. Feeling “guilty” about oaring tuition while having a “good” public in neighborhood..but is it “good” for real… [/quote] What are the benefits again? [/quote] You and your kids get to be around financially similarly situated families at private schools. It’s like at Costco…a members only club.[/quote] This doesn't hold true for catholics (which tend to give alot of scholarships) and the lesser privates. Also, as a former private school student I can tell you that the access to drugs and alcohol was so much freer at private. [/quote]
