Avira, agree on school influencing. In older times, it was a natural and welcome influence – sophisticated towners coming and bringing light to farmers, whether in Jewish or general context. Now, note that OOTers are generally people who moved _out_ (or their parents, as most US Jews initially arrived to big cities) for a reason and now “enjoy” their kids being formed by the influence of the crowd they moved away from. (this is gross generalization, of course, not to offend any nice in towners, or deny existence of annoying OOTers, of course)
