[quote=Anonymous]We sent to private during Covid and went back to public after. There are pros and cons of each but we preferred our pretty good but not tippy top public (not DMV area), even though money was not an issue for us (and we also care about academics over any other educational priority). I would be cautious about (1) assuming private will be "better"; (2) whether any strings might be attached to the gift; and (3) if they are really prepared to pay this tuition for 12 years. (And do you plan on more kids)? In the best case scenario, you could try public school, and if it doesn't work out, switch to private then, but I'm not sure if the offer would still stand. In the meantime, I agree with the advice to tour schools - both your zoned option and various privates. [/quote]
