Melynda, you've *never* heard me say that everyone should send their kids to
Logos; nor will you.
The discussion about private education is *not* about Logos; it never has
been; it never will be. When hard statistics are asked for, all I can go to
(locally) is the private school I know first hand. But in *all* my posts I
*always* say "private school" and not Logos (unless arguing about a
particular instance of private schools).

A private school could determine who it will cater to (born-again Hittites,
Trinitarians, Muslims, Hindus, atheists, neo-pagans, etc) if it so chose;
and it could select the academic emphasis that it wants to have (classical,
sports, arts, etc).
This would all depend upon the parent's desire for their children.
I repeat -- no one is arguing that everyone should send their kids to Logos.
There aren't that many Christians in Moscow!
