McAuliffe Praises Va. Public Schools Though Four of His Kids Went to Private Institutions
Jonathan Davis October 31, 2021

Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe talked up his state’s public education system on Sunday, adding that he’s raised five kids there though he sent four of them to private high schools.

The subject of education has been a major point of contention between the Democratic former governor and his Republican challenger, Glenn Youngkin; both of them have engaged in a war of words over parents being involved in their children’s school curriculum and development.

“We have a great school system in Virginia. Dorothy and I have raised our five children,” McAuliffe noted on NBC’s “Meet the Press” where he blasted his GOP opponent’s education positions during the interview.


Fox News reported:


--- Quote ---While this may be true, four out of McAuliffe’s five children went to private high schools.

According to a Washington Post profile from 2013, when after McAuliffe won a previous election to become governor, one of McAuliffe’s sons attended Gonzaga College High School, a Catholic institution in Washington, D.C., that has a current annual tuition of $24,950, not including meals or transportation.

That price tag is a bargain compared to The Potomac School in McLean, Va., where three of McAuliffe’s other went to high school. According to their website, Potomac’s tuition for the 2021-22 school year is $45,650 per year from grades 9-12.

I'm sure they are . But the fact the buffoon is doubling down on his public school vs parents gaffes does not bode well for a fair election.
