I coached CYO basketball for many years. Most kids were from the parish school but occasionally there were kids from private or public school. I only ever coached one kid from GA. He was Black and his parents were loaded - they held the end of season party at their home. Parents were both physicians at Jefferson.
If “educators” were truly curious people and truly interested in educating children, they would be interviewing this young man and his parents to find out exactly what were the elements, IN THE HOME and at school that promoted his success. I doubt that will happen though since the entire purpose of education is providing jobs to the education-industrial complex and not in education children.
