I have no idea why this is, maybe it's because people with jobs like these consider a good education more important than others, and I have seen kids here who shouldn't've gone to this school and kids at other schools who should have, mainly because of what their parents wanted *I won't even THINK of starting an "is intelligence genetically based" discussion :uhoh:*. However, it still separates the kids and that's not a very good thing.
