I can assure that there are public high schools in any metro area that are at least as good or probably better than many private schools. Now that being said - I your point is not totally off base because people think often without actually investigating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old guy Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Guys there is a vast difference between reality and perception. People believe what they want to believe, not what is real. I am very much aware that there are some public schools that are better than some private schools. That does not take away the feeling of superiority some people derive from having their kids in a private school. Perception is not reality.
