DY – aderaba, I am a strong believer in the absolute requirement for any community to have a serious community school, where everyone sends and the community supports. If the community believes in educating ALL of the children in the community, then the whole point is moot.
Every other type of school is and should be treated as existing solely for the profits (larger salaries and bonuses for non profits) of the owners or the need for exclusiveness by the parents of the students. For those schools I have no expectations, and yes, if the owner decides a child is too much trouble (or not smart enough, yeshivish, chassidish, internet, TV, etc.) then the child will be removed (and in some neighborhoods, that is exactly what happens). For someone who CV lives in such a community, they should realize no one is looking out for them and the school is only a service, and that you may not get if you dont pay.
And sorry, it is a shanda that the gedolim dont care enough to open schools in every Jewish community where everyone in a community can go, whether they can pay or not. That is exactly what the Alter of Navardok did.
