The disturbing part here is that prep schools actually are good. If they were extravagant wastes of money, they would be irrelevant.
The reason we have public education is that we're trying to give everyone an equal footing to start out in life. This goal is unachievable, but anything that further stretches the distance between the children of the poor and the children of the rich raises alarm bells for me.
I wish I had a good suggestion as to what to do about it.
