Yes, I do, if you reckon the cost is $78k/year.

But that isn't the point - I want to offer every parent, $20k, and say, send them to Madeira, Visitation, St. James, St. Anselm's, Flint Hill, Congressional, whatever.

Just get them out of city schools, so we can save 7k per kid.

And, I would keep open one city school, for those who wish it.

Let them compete.

We could go from, "We have excellent city schools," to, "We pay you $20K for any private school you like."

And the city would save $6k per kid.

What a selling point!
