QUOTE(nol @ Jun 5 2007, 09:46 PM) Theres NO private high schools or middle schools in our city. But I do think your being a little prejudice, since you can't say this about everyone. Not everyone that goes to a private school is stuck-up are they? NOPE, just because a majority in your area doesn't mean they are. I'm not sticking up for people that go to private schools, simply cuz there shouldnt be anything to stick up with them for. Ive never been to one, but really i dont think its fair you guys are making all these prejudice remarks against people that go to private schools. Therefore im not gonna vote in this poll. Hey nol... =) I go to private school, and trust me..... I'm not how most of you describe ^^, as nol.... *nol.. if you don't tell them something good.. your gettin git*

I don't understand that last statement. Anyways...if you want a government controlled school system, go to china. They have everything controlled, if you want choices stay here. There shouldn't be anybody saying anything about public schoolers being stupid, and nothing about private schoolers being smart, because thats not true at all. For example, thats like saying all caucasions, african, asian, latino, etc are all something, thats the same thing and it all comes down to people being prejudice, and stereotype.

I went to a public high school and I'm attending a private college...and I don't really notice any difference in the people! Both places I had classmates poorer, classmates at about the same place as me, and classmates who wouldn't know what work was if it bit them on their rear! I don't think you can judge people just because they go to a private school or a public school. And, by the way, the State of Indiana and my school are paying my tuition because I'm below a certain income bracket, so not everyone that goes to a private school is rich!

GOD I AM SICK OF POOR PEOPLE STARTING ANTI-RICH PEOPLE COMMENTS!

Get over it. No one cares about what you think. I used to go to a private school, now i go to a public school, and i have to say, public school is wayyyy more fun than private.

Get over it. If they can pay for a better education, don't whine and be jealous.

I don't know what country you're from, but in Australia, public AND private school kids wear uniforms.


Maybe you don't know this, but it's compulsory students wear uniforms to create equality, so peers DON'T feel bad about not having money to buy designer attire.


If people REALLY wanted to show off their wealth, they would send their designer clad children to public school.



Not sure if you know this, but these uniforms weren't actually made for insulting you, the world isn't against you.

So stop blaming the world for your insecurities.

Bye bye.

I am going to be blantly honest and I go to a private school, in Brisbane. BUT, I am NOT RICH, neither do I other people are "second class". Stop assuming that PRIVATE SCHOOL = RICH. IT DOESN'T. We are FAAAAAAAAAAAAAR from being any where near rich, we live in an ordinary house in an ordinary suburb, we don't normally have much money to "waste" on designer clothes, I am fine in normal everyday stuff. I know the type of people who associate with private schools- celebrities, rich people, politicians etc. but you will find that most people in there are your average joes working 5 days a week living in the suburbs, who just want their kids to get a good education. Thats the reason my parents sent me to a private school- education, NOT to look like some wanna be rich geek.

I've seen it all, I went to Primary school at a state school, those were the most fun times of my life, I really fitted in, and school was more enjoyable, but high school at a private school is just dullllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
llllllllll, education education education galore.... if private school was fun my parents wouldnt have sent me there.

^^ Trap Feedbacker, I agree 100% with everything you just said. Just because we can try to get a good education doesnt mean you should whine like a 5 year old. Don't be judgemental, what you think isnt what is true. Most people at our school *MOST* would respect non privates just as much as privates, it doesnt make a difference.

Is what I am trying to say make sense???

That is really true. I have to catch a bus with 2 private schools, "the private of the privates*" every day, and you should see how annoying they are!
They shout on the bus, take 2 seats each, they shove their bags in the walkway and think they own everything. Once, there was a guy who brough 5 iPods to school! Why do you need so many? He only had like 200 songs.

*Private of the Privates in Australia is Kings School

Apparently private schools and public school students get pretty much the same education, but the private schools have way more resources. The extra money has to go somewhere. I know people who go to private schools and they dont say they are better or smarter at all. Its just another type of school, so what? I also think that every student is responsible for his/her education. I personally think you can learn from a text book than from teacher, and its the students responsibility to learn themselves rather than the teacher putting in all the world for your education. I goto a public school and still wear a uniform. I actually prefer a uniform.

I agree with this. I go to a private school in Australia and the uniform makes me feel as if I belong somewhere. My family is not extremely well off like some of the families at my school (which pisses me off really bad sometimes) but I do think in Australia, it is worth the money going to a private or catholic school for high school.
