[quote=Anonymous]Op it’s so much worse than you realize. My kid goes to an elite ( not east coast ) private school. Her summer camp is 10k We belong to a country club. She is 9 but can competently ride a horse. She plays tennis and golf. She’s been in the chess club for 2 years. She wants to do fencing this year. She plays the piano and will start another instrument in fourth grade. She began Spanish and Mandarin in kindergarten. And she’s in third grade. She socializes with all kinds of kids because we pay a fortune so the school can afford to be diverse. Her bestie’s mom is a single parent nurse. My completely obnoxious point is this… College doesn’t matter. For the families that are easily swallowing 40k a year for a country day school, a top 25 school isn’t important. The fact that they are so over represented in college admissions is just another privilege added to the list.[/quote]
