Maybe in Texas. Here public and private schools play for the State Titles.

So are you telling me that one school cannot have a better musical program or computer science program over another school? And a parent would not consider that when trying to get their kid into a better college?

I do not even have kids and that is a conversation I have had with parents that have choice to go to another school in the same school district.
