it was. we had a huge dinner with all of the parents that flew in. It was really awkward. It was also the first time I had ever been wasted. I knocked over a lot of wine and champagne of a former roommate's dad. So embarrassing

Did you turn gay there or is that the reason they sent you off?

Parents didn't want me to go to public school, so they sent me there. If I ever had close to the amount of money it costs, I'd send my kid there in a heartbeat.

Why? Public vs. Private doesn't matter until College.

In some ways, I think public school prepares you for life better.

Private school just connects you to other families with connections. That's the way I see it, at least.

The school, however, gave me many more opportunities I'd never get going to school in SF

Connections are a handicap. If you're worth two shits you'll make plenty.

Which did you go to?

I've been to both large & small public schools and large & small private schools.

Trust me there is a huge difference. First in quality & level of education, second - imagine having 50 kids in your high school compared to 1,000+.

Small Public, but actually I went to Community college Sophomore/Junior/Senior year, so call me misinformed.

Not for my field, or not as much as you pretend it is.

 

[goDAWGSsicem]

I went to one school that you had to already have connections to get into.
