[quote=Anonymous]Honestly? I was thinking about this topic before I was ever married or pregnant. Setting down roots was important to me and I wanted to settle in a place with good school options. My parents had instructed me from childhood about the benefits of being a long term planner, so it was one of the things that went into buying my home as a single woman before I was even married. I bought my first home at 26 and chose it based upon the school district reputation because I liked the area and wanted to set down roots. Once I met my then-boyfriend and now husband, it was a topic of conversation after we decided on becoming engaged. After we married I sold my first house and we bought our home together in the same area. Although the public schools in MoCo are well regarded, we decided on private schools for our children, as we are both concerned about violence and disorder in the public schools. Our daughter starts Pre-K at a private Catholic school in the fall and I feel good about our choice. [/quote]
