[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why cannot you just go to public school ????[/quote]

What ever happened to diversity, inclusion and equity?[/quote]

DEI doesn't mean every single person who wants to go to private school gets to go to private school for free.  Free school is public school. Private schools and their aid budgets are funded by other parents paying full tuition plus contributing to the annual fund.  Whether that's right or fair is beside the point. That's the reality.[/quote]

Diversity and inclusion means you have a huge range of students.  Families making under $80K should be far more deserving of a family making $200-300K who claims poverty because of their housing and other lifestyle choices.  Its funny how these schools and families preach what they don't practice.  [/quote]

I think it depends. If the 80k family has only 1 income because mom chose to stay at home, while the 200 HHI is a two income family with parents that work long hours or multiple jobs, why is the 80k HHI family more deserving?

Each case is unique and choosing easy and flexible jobs or choosing ti stay at home should be accounted for in the FA equation[/quote]

At $200K, that family can afford a lot more including child care and help.  So, if the SAHM goes out and earns $40k, and 1/3 goes to taxes, and all that good stuff, and earns $25K, then how much of that goes to child care.  Often it doesn't pay to work.  They earn to much for government help but not enough to pay for child care and housing.  [/quote]
