God, no! Exact opposite in most good private schools. Overly liberal if anything.

+1. Top private schools are notoriously liberal.

Not religious privates.

Religious privates are not top (save Sidwell).

Name one teen killer who had a present, loving and respectable father at home.

The shooters from Columbine, the shooter of the Sunday school, Virginia Tech shooter. Want me to go on?

Several schools on this non-exhaustive list are private:

Unbelievable….so sad…and so unnecessary! Another bullied kid. Two assault rifles purchased on his 18th birthday! Wearing protective gear! Shooting unarmed innocents. Will legislators finally enact gun control measures that will make such scenes not happen?

Both of the Columbine kids did.

God, no! Exact opposite in most good private schools. Overly liberal if anything.

Every parent I know in our privateer school supports strong gun control. It’s not a religious private, btw.

+1. Top private schools are notoriously liberal.

Not religious privates.

Those were public schools. Kids like that would be flagged and expelled from private school.

Haha. You wish. But whatever helps you sleep at night.

They were public schools, PP. At our school those type of kids would be counseled out. I know it as I work in the office.

Please don’t fake laugh at things you have no clue about. It’s just embarrassing for you.

Not every private is a “top” private or gets rid of troubled kids. And not all troubled kids show it so obviously. Ask me how I know.

There was a private school shooting just last month, but keep pushing this storyline.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/education/2022/04/28/edmund-burke-dc-shooting-school/

That was not a school shooting, you fool! Someone from a neighborhood I got building shot at the school and no one was killed!!

Sounds like a prison.

It’s actually beautiful. Honestly.

Anonymous wrote:Living in a blue state city is probably one of the safest decisions you could make. Picking a school based on the perimeter wall feels like picking the gated community. It's a false sense of security if you're in a state with permissive gun laws.

OP. We have lived in both. We live in Pennsylvania, and I don't feel any safer than when we lived in FL. We were minutes away from Parkland. Surprisingly, parkland was a very nice area. It's not what you think of when Florida comes to mind.

And how much does this cost? Not everyone is rich. You will just raise a very anxious child.

Only rich kids deserve safety and security of course.

All kids deserve safety and security but that is not going to happen in this country. We struggle to send our child to a very secure private school. My heart breaks for those who simply can’t afford to keep their kids as safe as possible.
