Scott wonders about admission standards for most private schools:
================
Well, I wonder if this is necessarily true of all private schools.
Perhaps
for special private schools for the gifted, but I imagine that many
private
schools would be happy to admit the disabled, because they understand
that
being disabled is not the same thing as being worthless
==============

I don't know about the nature of private schools in the USA, but the
vast majority of the non-religious ones around here are modelled on the
British "public" (hence private) school model. Academic standards are a
significant part of the admission requirements (perhaps waived if mommy
and daddy have plenty of money or hoity-toity positions in the
community). So you'll not see many (any) pupils with mental
disabilities on those campuses.
