[quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately it's hard to judge the value without experiencing the alternative. On the whole, we've found private high school to be worth it for one of our kids but public will be better for our younger 2 and that's their choice also so we'll stick with that. Private elementary was worth it for K-3 for kid #1, K-5 for kid #2, and not at all for kid #3. Middle school was worth the $$$ for academics but costs a lot in terms of mental health because socially it's been a bad fit for all 3. Easy enough to see in hindsight but impossible to judge when you're in the thick of things without a basis of comparison. Tuition will only keep going up, so if it already feels too expensive that's a big issue unless you foresee your income increasing significantly in the future. [/quote]
