[quote=Anonymous]In every community, there will be a tendency for parents to want the "best" for their children. Montgomery county public schools are excellent by just about any standard. I'm a product of public schools in Bethesda, and I think they are some great schools. My family now lives in PG County where the schools are not as good, in general, as compared with Montgomery. We have 2 local elementary schools, neither of which is as good as Burning Tree. But the focus among parents is just to get their kids into the better of the two local choices. So, wherever you are, there will always be a "best" choice. An issue for me with private schools is that your kid will be surrounded by other kids whose parents can afford the tuition. OK, maybe a handful of kids on scholarship or something, but mostly, you're throwing the more affluent kids together and this will affect their baseline understanding of the world. [/quote]
