I never have had the fortune of actually being a student at an NYC public school, although I did pass the tests for Stuyvesant and Hunter. Competition is intense for places at these schools.
The problem is that private schools are obscenely expensive in New York. Some of the elite ones such as Collegiate, Trinity, Dalton, Horace Mann, and Ethical Culture charge over 20,000 a year. The lesser public schools are less expensive, but still expensive. Parochial schools, which may not provide the support of private schools, are at least safe and fairly rigorous. Unfortunately, the Catholic Church is increasingly unable to subsidize them. Even Middle class children, who are not gifted are screwed.
If the parents of white kids being bullied by their "peers" and belittled by leftist textbooks have any sense, they will join in a class action lawsuit for institutional bias.
Alternatively, if the queer kids can have a school, perhaps white kids can have one for their protection.

Not to sound unkind, but look around. It's an all or nothing world right now. People don't generally get to linger in the comfortable middle.
