Private school?

• doggodaddo78 5y ago
  My parents put me in a private school for K-3 for this reason. But then threw me in public school for 4th grade because my dad wanted to buy more audiophile equipment. I was constantly ahead of the public school material for 5 grades. In high-school, I took the SAT-I without studying and aced the math section. (Plot twist: I was white and not rich amongst mostly rich white and Asian students.) On a tangent, I had to decline a roommate because he expressed "the scientific method is racist." That was it. I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

  Private mentoring is a better use of money than private school, IMO, as Bay Area public schools are pretty decent and will send a good amount of kids to elite colleges.

  The way I see it, this system will soon spread from public school policy to community colleges, state universities, to all the way to private colleges. It’s just a matter of time and it would be better to start now to find a way to get some representation for the taxes we pay.
