SO do the wealthy neighborhoods rely on private schools? Texas has a variety of school districts with some amount of independence. The wealthy districts are required to share some revenue with poorer districts. It's not some kind of fund, they actually pair up schools for one to support the other. There's no way to make it rational. When my kids were in school, in the suburbs, there were a lot of kids in private religious schools. What makes it especially stupid is that many parents whose kids were in these religious schools ran for the school boards of the public schools. They are kind of stealth campaigns because it's not a widely followed election. If elected, they would push the kind of crazy agendas that the current Texas state government is pushing. Our kids were educated primarily by tutors we hired after school, although going to public school was an important part of socializing for them and I'm amazed at how many other millennials my kids know in this fairly large city (we run into them on the streets and clubs). There are some elite private schools in town but I guess we run in different circles.
