> My colleagues and I often discuss how we would've found it helpful if during our childhood we were taught pragmatic skills such as budgeting and resolving interpersonal conflicts—skills that we require on a day to day basis.

This is where many people undervalue the experience of having even a menial job at school age. I'm sure this school is amazing and this kind of experience at a younger age sounds great, but the best "real work" experience is "real work". That where you interact with strangers, adults often from different backgrounds than you, who aren't present because they're paid to watch for your interest, where you get a paycheck, and where you can be fired. I don't think that's an experience for which a school can provide an adequate substitute.
