Just follow Libs of Tiktok and that should provide all the insight needed on the public school/ private school decision making.




It is a good point to see who graduated from a Private/Independent School education vs Public.

Private:
Donald Trump
Nikki Haley
Ron DeSantis
Vivek Ramaswamy
Ted Cruz
Joe Biden


Public:
Chris Christie
Kamala Harris
Marjorie Taylor Greene

Did not graduate:
Laruen Boebert


This is taking too long. 115th US Senate Private vs Public HS graduates:

In Houston, big expensive homes in a nice area doesn't guarantee good schools. You can live in a $5M home in central Houston and still have to send your kids through private schools. Third Ward shares an elementary school with neighborhoods around Rice Village. Lamar High School in River Oaks during lunch breaks looks like a scene from The Wire and has over 3,000 students which was housed in a 1920's building until the past couple of years.

I have average students who sometimes need some help with math. They aren't going to get it from a district worried about washing machines and pregnancy care in schools

Likely impacts their entire life assuming they meet their spouse, alumni connections, etc.

but when my kids go to their football/basketball games to support their friends, they always come back shocked at how vulgar that crowd can be.


I bet the public school band plays Neck.

Catholic private schools in S La charging 10 to 30k/yr


WTF are you talking about 30K?
most are between 8-16K.
Thats Jesuit, Catholic, Dominican, Brother Martin, Mt Carmal, St. Charles, etc.

I will concede that the two Catholic high schools I looked at in Little Rock, AR and Hattiesburg, MS were both at 6K.

That’s most likely after the parish discount. St Joseph’s in Madison is just north of 10k per year after the parish discount. My oldest went to Prep from 7th to graduation. Started at $15k and when she graduated it was just north of 18k. Now it’s around 20k
