I used to run my own company that provided this, amongst other things, for bachelor parties and the like. If there’s no table money to be made, I’d probably be charging an appearance fee then an hourly. Like $150-200, then like $100 an hour, depending on the exacts of the party and equipment.

For reference, a 4 hour stag or bachelor party I’d expect the table to make $600-$2000 depending on how brisk the play is and anywhere from $5-$15 table minimums with stag rules in play. The dealers that worked for me would make 40% of that profit.

There's nothing wrong with that. There are plenty of excellent teachers in the system. Just like every other one. It's up to you at home to instill the work ethic and commitment for your kid to seek out those teachers and be diligent about thier studies. These teachers may not have the same resources as a teacher in New Canaan or glastonbury, but they're still going to do their absolute best for thier students.

That being said, are there some teachers that will mail it in? Sure, there's no profession that doesn't have that. But there isn't some magic potion that's going to automatically make your kid do better at a private school vs a public. Especially on the elementary and middle school level.

Shelton is perfectly fine for a vast, vast majority of the population that lives in shelton.

High school is arguably a different story but you've got 10 years to sort that out.

Shelton's schools are pretty average. 🤷‍♂️. They're big but plenty of good things about it. I wouldn't mind my kids going there. But there's plenty of good private schools in the area if you insist.
