Parents: Your College Journey vs. Kids

Our public high school has an unusual mix of very wealthy students (even the literal billionaires kids attend the public….the private are for rich kids who cant quite cut the highly competitive nature of the upper level classes at the school) and a significant minority of low income immigrant kids. The GC’s do no college counseling. We have several dedicated college counselors but the wealthy kids are highly discouraged from using them so that they can devote their resources to those who can’t afford a private college counselor. It’s the same with the drivers Ed class offered at the school. They really encourage the wealthy kids to take the class at a private drivers Ed school by reserving the best times for thise who truly need the school to provide it.
