People 'over' where??

I think there are lots of Working Class families who find this somewhat odd - that MCPS would funnel money into a private school, when our kids don't even have adequate staffing/facilities at our schools.

My kids attend a Focus School in Silver Spring.  Are were 'over there' enough for you?  My principal could do a TON with an extra $600K.  We have no aides in K, our media specialist is begging parents to donate books, our class sizes in 4th and 5th grade are ridiculous.  Even if they want to divide the $600K that MCPS gives Saturday School amongst the Title 1/Focus Schools in the county, most parents 'over here' would be pretty happy with an extra few thousand dollars in the school's budget.[/quote]

SATURDAY SCHOOL IS NOT A PRIVATE SCHOOL. Yes, I'm shouting.

But really, do you call Mathnasium a private school? How about Princeton Review?[/quote][/quote]
