May want to check the demographics of said schools. May give you the tip you need to figure all this out.


Doesn't take a genius to figure out that the private schools are 95% white and the Public schools are 70% black. It's an under-the-table form of segregation.

Nonsense. When you say this, you're saying black people can't afford or be accepted to private school. Couldn't be further from the truth.

Unfortunately, that is generally true. My two younger kids go/went (one is at LSU now) to a private that has a racial profile that fairly close to the general population in our area. It is also one of the least expensive in the area. In hindsight, I may have chosen otherwise but not because of the racial profile, that is actually one thing I am glad about, but because the academics have drop off since we started there.

If I had had a little better foresight, I may have ended up in Texas just for the schools. Probably would have had them in a Christian school through elementary anyway though.

What area are you in?

Good luck with the search.

You think people send their kids to private schools because of racism?

Sorry not sorry I don’t want my kids going to school with distractions or bad influences. White or black or Mexican or Asian. Whatever I need to do to keep my kid in a positive setting to learn, I’ll do it.

Currently, my daughter goes to the #1 elementary school in the state. It’s a magnet school. My son just tested for the same one. If he doesn’t make it, we will be moving or building sooner than later

Might be a factor, but I don't think there are that many bruthas in Nebraska or Rhode Island. Pennsylvania is lily white outside of Philadelphia and to some extent Pittsburgh.

R-Kansas has a small private school population and a fairly large black population.
