And to think of it ...... 50% would be average ....

The above comment kind of brings the difference between parochial and
public school scores into a little better focus now doesn't it.

Nope. The poor usually don't do all that well in school ... and money is

You missed the boat yet again.

Your anti-religious obsession seems to be clouding your thinking on
this issue. As much as you may HATE to admit it, parochial school
students generally score higher scholastically than their public school
counterparts up through high school.

You don't know what "counterparts" is.
