Like, for example, the ones that his kids attend. Dan said that he did a lot of research about the schools when he decided to live in Chicago. This research told him that he should not live in Englewood, but rather in a rich, all white neighborhood on the north side.

Way to go, Dan. Way to figure that out. :thumleft: :roll:

Beardown its one of the biggest reasons people by houses in a certain area. Of course everyone says they are in the best school district for their kids needs. Ho hum.

Bell is a good school. Why I dont know, everyone says so...thats how it goes.

Yes. I'm aware of that. Obviously. I was just mocking Bernstein for saying it. He didn't have to say it. We all know Deerfield Dan wasn't gonna wasn't gonna move to THE HOOD.

Dan once said the reason he and his wife wanted to live in Chicago was because "We wanted our kids to see brown people".

Bernstein to his daughter...

Bernstein: Honey, your mom and I thought very hard about where we wanted to raise you. We decided to live in Chicago because we wanted you and your brother to see brown people. Something I never saw growing up in Deerfield. BUT DON'T YOU DARE DATE ONE.

Daughter: Yes, daddy.

Your opening a whole other can of worms. There are a lot of cultures/nationalities that forbid outside marrying.

Yeah. But not Bernstein. He's only Jewish for the holidays as we all know.

I always find it amusing when Dan makes fun of someone else's looks, like the unfortunate freshman he met at Duke while he was a student there.

For someone who has been called "the Penguin" on the air, it might be a good idea for him to keep comments like these to himself.

He sends his kids to a magnate school. He has intimated that he will move to the suburbs if they don't get into a magnate high school. He lives in a virtually gated subdivision within the city. He has also said that he doesn't send them to private school because of the cost.

I don't know anything about his kids, but one of the things that is interesting about some of these public schools is that they have magnet students and local students. The smart kids bump up the test scores and give the school its rep.

Deerfield Dan sends his kids to Public school, in his world thats substandard. private school is the real only acceptable education, kinda low budget of a man that is so focused on education.

Magnet Schools: The travel sports of the education world.

Both are terrible for children.

While several Chicago magnet schools are outstanding--several of them, for instance, rank above New Trier in statewide assessments--I am surprised Bernstein doesn't send his kids to Francis Parker. That's the perfect place for the children of a cultural elitist like him.

I don't want to start any pernicious myths, but I suspect he's too cheap to send them there.

look at it from his perspective: His kids would have to be mentally deficient for them not to be able to get into either Duke or Cornell (with the connections he has to both). Why pay when you have a great end result secured?

Is there any hope for the country that his two kids don't both become defense lawyers?
