This is based off of my own experience because I go to one myself. It is NOT all snobs, all of the year below me (except 1)got in via scholarship. We are not stuck up brats. Often when people ask me what school I go to I tell them because they have told me so why not bit the usual reply is "oh you go to a rich/posh sch- I mean a private school". It's understandable that people will thing we are stuck up but we are also human, we also have many problems. 2 of my best friends parents are divorced and one of my best friends dad is on his 3rd wife (I think).
And although some of us have a decent amount of money we still have to work hard in order to be able to get a job in the future. Our parents work hard as well they don't just sit about all day, both my parents (for about 2 years) had a full time job and a part time job.
We are not very different from people in public schools
My best friend got laughed at by her old school friends when she said she was moving to my school.
I don't mean to have a go at people
I just want to say
We are all human
We are the same
Person 1: "Oh you go to a rich/posh sch- I mean a private school"
Person 2: "SHHHHHHH they'll hear you!!!"

A small little building full of white kids with "mommy and daddy" issues, where they keep the air conditioning way too freaking cold. Not as bad as everyone thinks it is, the kids are as messed up as in public schools, they just dress nicer.
The only difference between public school and private school is more expensive drugs

Schools that usually provide better education for it's students than most public schools. Admission requires money or scholarships or both; some schools require entrance examinations. Their curriculum is not mandated by the state.
rich white people like it because it's it's full of other rich white people and no minorities to scare them.
You attend private school

An institution that is usually meant to be mono-sex (or boys only/ girls only) and is rarely Coed. Most are established on the Main Line (Pennsylvania, New York up to New England) or on the west coast (California only). Private Schools or Prep Schools are establishments started in the 1910s and have a "college" setting. Sometimes students board there and sometimes the school is run like a public school. The attendants come from families with a bit (quite a bit) more money then other families, except in the case of the occasional well-spoken scholarship boy. Instead of being forced to believe in unified ideas and socialist ideas (brought up by friends of mine who go to public school) they are 'encouraged' or 'forced' to come up with their own ideas about how the world should work. In this way the school will produce leaders, CEO's, and Wall Street stock analysts that will make between $450,000-$2,500,000 per year or highly paid surgeons and consultants that make $250-$700 an hour.
The kids attend Ivy League schools and in this way the private or prep school can claim success that they can advertise to the wealthy folk, who probably attended private/prep schools themselves. The children who attend these institutions are not always stuck up (in fact at my school VERY few are).
Pros:
-Small classes (between 10-25 kids divided into 2 homerooms)
-"New" educational ideas that promote self-acting
-Prestige when applying for colleges and jobs
-AP courses that allow up to 2 years worth of college
courses to be accumulated in senior year
-Less violence
Cons:
-Not usually Coed
-Separation from the unwashed masses that the kids will have
to deal with when they have big powerful administrative
jobs
Dean: "So I'd like to start this application for our college
with an interview, so please tell me about yourself."
The Private School / Prep School Student's Response:
"Well I attended a Prep School from 6th-12th grade, scoring a 3.50+ GPA each year, and a 2360 on the SAT."
Dean: "Alright then, lets get these forms filled out..."

A school that you must pass an entry exam, get at least a GPA of a B+, and it gives you a better education than public shchools. Private schools don't cost much, though-only about 65,000-150,000 a year. Some are really cheap and cost 20,00 though.
Private schools are a good education
