Private School Parents Confess - the Daily Beast” 2/12/09 1:04 PM
Loading “Private School Parents Confess - The Daily Beast” 2/12/09 1:04 PM Private School Parents Confess by Kathleen Kingsbury February 11, 2009 | 6:00am Scheming, bribing, brown-nosing—parents of toddlers and teens alike confess the absurd measures they’ve taken to get their kids an elite early education. Over the next two weeks, tens of thousands of nervous New York parents will hover by their mailboxes waiting to hear whether their child has secured one of about 2,500 spots at the city’s top private schools. Parents in other cities are doing the same—an annual ritual that, for the lucky few, sets their young charges on the road to the Ivies via elite institutions like Dalton, Brearley, Trinity, and Collegiate. These schools claim to accept about one in ten applicants, and they report that despite economic woes, demand to pay upward of $30,000 a year to attend their hallowed halls hasn’t fallen at all. As such, parents have vigorously schemed, bribed, and brown-nosed the admissions offices of their first-choice schools, including the kindergartens. Now it’s time to find out if their efforts paid off—pencils down. “Don’t bribe your kid to behave during the interview or play date. One child asked for her $20 on the way out the door, and the admissions officer heard it. Let’s just say it reflected poorly.” The Daily Beast spoke to parents, teachers, and admissions consultants about how far parents go to get their children the most impressive educations money can buy.

Tippecanoe County, Lafayette Collegiate Institute Pamphlet, 1864–1865
Online Connections Regional Sources and Stories Tippecanoe County, Lafayette Collegiate Institute Pamphlet, 1864–1865 Ruth Dorrel and Freddie Waters Following is a partial transcript of the 1864–1865 pamphlet from the Lafayette Collegiate Institute, which catalogues its administrators, students, and teachers. The complete pamphlet may be viewed at the Indiana State Library. The Lafayette Collegiate Institute was a private non-denominational Christian school in Lafayette, Indiana. The school provided primary and preparatory school classes in addition to college-level courses. Curriculum at all grade levels focused on a liberal arts education, while students were to maintain an active Christian and civic life.1 Similar schools existed throughout the region, and some have endured to the present, such as Butler University, Hanover College, and Franklin College. Unlike the Lafayette institute, these colleges were usually founded and supported by specific Christian denominations.2 The institute shared with its contemporaries a concerted communal effort toward education. The Northwest Ordinance encouraged the governmental support of education, and Indiana’s constitution mandated the organization of free and open public education. However, efforts to create free public schools struggled throughout the nineteenth century, and community private schools became common.3 The institute exemplifies the diversity and localization of Indiana’s nineteenth-century schools during a time of burgeoning educational opportunity.

Portraits of Members of the Packer Community, Plus Essential Information About Brooklyn’S Oldest Independent School Who We Are
Portraits of members of the Packer community, plus essential information about Brooklyn’s oldest independent school Who we are. A brief introduction to The Packer Collegiate Institute It’s hard to convey who we are in a few words, but here’s an attempt: We believe that the head and the heart make each other stronger. We balance the value of scholarship with the importance of relationships. We make space for new voices and new ideas, we hold the door for each other, we sing silly songs. We believe that great minds—and great schools—embrace difference and admit complexity. We think deeply, speak confidently, and act with purpose and heart. The result is a learning community that is smart and serious and motivated—and warm and supportive and joyful. That’s an unusual combination. But it works. And it allows our graduates to go into the world and do good work. Perhaps the best way to understand who we are is to spend time with us. On the pages that follow, you’ll meet a few of the people who make Packer Packer. “Packer hinges on an amazing combination of serious scholarship, authentic curiosity, unbridled enthusiasm, and genuine care for the community.” 2 3 “It’s so great to have independence and responsibility. I love being able to spend free time with my friends— the people who make me who I am.” 4 5 “We embrace the ‘work hard, play hard’ philosophy. We can be rigorous one moment and silly the next.” 6 7 “You’re exposed to so much here, so much diversity of thought.
