The mixing was real and useful, but those schools also faced years of underfunding and declining standards. Once the quality gap became obvious, parents who could exit did so. The deeper issue is that the public system stopped being a reliable option for capable kids, not just that exclusive schools appeared.
Let my talents grow, my knowledge increase, and my efforts bear fruit.
Give me the courage to begin what I have been postponing and the determination to continue when progress feels slow.
