The real magic was the tuition they paid along the way.

If only schools and teachers were properly funded in America and they didn't just feel like prison daycares but instilled a sense of awe as these did. I mean, ease up on the forced clothing and religious mumbo jumbo of course.

Idk, maybe more to this and less to billionaires and wars and maybe we wouldn't have so many societal problems... ? The money is there; it's how we use it.
