Why is Ben in public school?
Main Post:
Real question - if Ben is so rich, and his parents are so obsessed with status, why does he attend a public high school?
Top Comment: It happens IRL. Like the other commenter said, it's better to be the big fish in the little pond than to be one of hundreds of students who are competing for the top Ivy League spots. They supplement it with all the private tutoring that Ben wants. And it seems like a lot of the pressure to do well comes from Ben himself and it's entirely possible that Ben's dad doesn't see the need for Ben to go to an expensive private school since he himself was able to work his way up and get to Columbia without it. I also think they exaggerated what their public school was like this season in particular just to show a disparity between it and Des' school. It's still supposed to be a good high school with a ton of extracurriculars (robotics club, debate team, theater program, Model UN) and a music and notable athletics program (soccer, swimming). And Devi's parent(s) and her classmates' parents seem to be doing well even if they're not all Gross family-level rich.

Why is Ben at Sherman Oaks Public School when we've already established he's like crazy rich?
Main Post:
Shouldn't he be at the private school with Des and co? Is there a particular reason Ben would choose to go to Sherman Oaks? He just seems like the type who would love to use his money for those kinds of advantages. Not in a good or a bad way, it just doesn't make sense that he's never wanted to go there, especially because complains about the lack of resources at Sherman Oaks in the debate episode
