You hit the nail on the head.

Sure. Private schools are more inclusive than public schools.

it's not the schools it's the people. Wherever you go, there the people are. People exclude others not like them.

Sure. That makes it acceptable.

It's human nature. For all the inclusion talk there are so many kids left on the sidelines. Not cool enough, too weird, annoying, etc. Why focus on just SES or race? Exclusion happens in every single classroom.

Because those things are resulted from something the kid nor the kid’s family can control and has been happening to the same race of people for hundreds of years on US soil.

Discrimination has been going on since humanity lumbered from the primordial ooze. All races, every corner of earth, all since day one.

Well yes, you are 100% correct and that is true.

But what hasn’t been going on since day 1 are people simultaneously pursuing discrimination for themselves and their own family while at the exact same time preaching anti-discrimination and condemning those who engage in it in order to elevate their own status by presenting themselves as virtuous and others as bigoted while the both engage in the same behaviors.

If you are asking for charity, i.e. financial aid, then yes.

So you think that people who receive financial aid and scholarships in college are asking for charity? If you do, you are obtuse and insolent. These schools cost more in tuition than many colleges.

Financial aid, yes that’s a literal that means charity. Scholarships, no that’s a payment for excellence.

You are an idiot. “Scholarships” in college work just like financial aid in private school. It’s easier for people who can pay “full sticker price” to get in. But many students, at some schools most students, get some scholarship funding to lessen the cost. The average price paid at many schools is far below sticker.

You are an idiot. Scholarship and financial aid are NOT the same thing. Not all scholarships are needs based. Scholarships are based on attaining high GPAs or having an unusual talent in sporting or arts valued by an institution. If you ever got one you would know that. All financial aid is needs based. Dummy.

This is pretty funny, as I actually got a full scholarship to several schools in my lifetime. Literally went to Harvard on a full tuition scholarship.

I went to school on a full scholarship as well. I was offered full scholarships to several schools including schools I did not even apply to. This was based on MERIT.

I have friends who also went to schools on scholarships, again based on merit. Some of them from rather wealthy families.

I also have friends who qualified for financial aid packages after filling out their FAFSAs which is based on need. I can dumb it down for those who don’t know the simple word “aid” which means help. Wealthy people don’t need and in most instances don’t qualify for help after filling out FAFSAs. Thats at the collegiate level, of course private k-12 schools are making their own rules concerning needs based cutoffs but either way, they are checking pockets before determining that “aid”. And still offering exceptionally talented people and athletes scholarships based on merit.

Yes, and there is something called the civil rights act since 1964. In case you have not noticed it.

Anonymous wrote:Private school's care about aesthetics. They want a class that looks "right." This approach means that private schools will bring in students of color (some, not too many), only to take their picture for the brochure ("Look, we're diverse!"), and relieve the white community of concerns that they may be called racist. At the end of the day, schools don't really care about racial diversity because they know darned well the claim that a Black student will be a better calculus just because she is sitting next to a White student (and vice versa) is pure fiction. What the schools DO care about is maintaining power and status. In short, racial diversity enables socioeconomic segregation. Those factors are not in tension; rather, they complement each other.
