[quote=Anonymous]I live in Old Town. Everyone knows the school situation here. I could either move out to the land of mcmansions and send my kids to a good public school, but I don't want to live there. I could send my kids to private school (most likely SSSAS), but we would be financially strained and constantly worrying about money. The other areas where I would like to live besides Old Town are in DC and I would still have to send my kid to private school. (I'm not interested in Arlington, no offense to you arlington peeps). I have been talking with a few local people about starting a private school. The tuition would be somewhere between 7-10K per student. We could rent an office space for the school. We could hire an excellent teacher(s). Parents would have to be very involved and share in the workload of running the school. Emphasis would be on strict academics and discipline. If you can't make the grade or can't behave then you're out. Thoughts, ideas, feedback? Eventually this is going to happen right? There is a need for more school options in this area at a lower tuition cost.[/quote]
