“There is a private school in Brentwood, TN that costs $38,000 per year to attend.”

Astonishing.
The parents get lots of bragging rights though.
That’s really what it is all about.

I call BS on that.
I have been to public schools and I have been to private schools. Every private school I have seen is far, far better.
Reason number 1. The kids parents, and the kids have a substantial investment in academic success.
Reason number 2. There is none of this nonsense about "constitutional rights" for students. I vividly remember one of my daughters friends who was suspended for a week because one of her teachers saw her smoking about a block from the school. You can bet her parents tanned her butt over that one.
Meanwhile over at the public school, the school can't stop the little cherubs from selling hard drugs from their lockers.
A $38k school is high, I agree, but it is teaching your kids how to be part of the top 0.1%. If you have the money, it is worth it.
