[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]private schools parents can try to justify paying up to $55000 for a subpar education from here to the heaven, but the fact is none of them can compete with the Ws.
Choose any academic competition and the W schools will run circles around them.[/quote]

With this attitude and line of thinking YOU are much better off in public school.  Many don't agree with you in private so you won't fit in, plus it sounds like you want o raise a "competitor" while most people in private are looking to raise trend setters and leaders.

Just check the stats on all your favorite leaders....pick an industry.  While there will be public kids and private kids in both, leaders are overly represented from private.  Less than 10% of the kids in the community try attend private, so that's your benchmark.  If private kids are represented above 10%, then kids generally are better off.[/quote]

Is the private school a cause or effect? Bill Gates went to private school, but his big entrepreneural break was a nepotism contract he got from his mom's friend on the board of IBM. But he got into computers because his private school has a rare at the time powerful computer.

Do you think public school kids don’t benefit from nepotism? We’re talking about public schools in Potomac and Bethesda, not Compton. [/quote]

Some do, most don't. [/quote]
