<p>Today I was reading 5/30/13 on-line Phillipian “state of the school 2013” article which had a question to students this year, “Is there a socio-economic divide at this school” and the answer was a resounding yes by most students. Sub-divided by race and ethnicity, it did not appear to make any difference in the large majority of students from all groups who saw a clear divide. So while diversity and financial aid are playing a big role in today’s prep schools, something is still palpable to the kids.</p>
