My child is nearly three. It won't be long before we have to think about a school for him. One of my top choices is Harmony School, but I wonder if I can be accused of elitism if I want to send him to a private school? I think my dad would say he needs to be exposed to children of diferent backgrounds than us, and I am sympathetic to that. But some kinds of diversity I don't want. For example, I would be perfectly happy not having him exposed to:
- Students who don't feel that education is important.
- Students who believe that the world owes them a living.
- Students who are just marking time until they are legally allowed to leave school.
- Lawyers.
Well, OK, I suppose that last one isn't a big issue in preschool.
So am I an elitist?
