You're teaching at the wrong private school, around here tuition is 50K a year per student, and not much "family" discount. And there are multiple private schools, some pseudo-religious, most not. Not only paid more, but their resource budgets are enormous. The rich are winning bigly, because real education still matters. Those that don't go private, force their kids into accelerated Kumon and tutoring. They are leaving the moronic middle class to self-moronify itself into nothingness.
