Whatever you have to say about Fay from your own experience is no doubt valuable, but let’s not taint all these schools. Bement is not a rich school, does not favor rich kids, and has lots of middle class kids who are very well treated. In part, they can do this because they have access to so many of Deerfield’s facilities, so they don’t need to provide their own. But even Eaglebrook (mentioned by another poster), which DOES have plenty of rich kids, and certainly DOES solicit donations, does not discriminate against those who are not rich. My DS was there, we are NOT rich and never gave them more than a token amount, but in terms of placement in classes and teams-- and in terms of recognizing accomplishments and giving awards, they were always very fair.
