[quote=Anonymous]I would put short commute/close to home high on the list. What about after school care? That can get expensive, unless your DH can always do pick up. As someone else said - there are pros and cons of all schools. If you're looking for the ones with most middle income families, then probably the cheaper ones and the more progressive ones (possibly). But, if you decide you want small classes first, I'd go for cost and commute second and third. We're a middle class family going to private (we get employer support for private school) and I don't worry too much about other families being just like us. If the kids have rich friends, then that's fine - I can get along with anyone and don't feel embarrassed about having a smaller house, less stuff, etc. So, perhaps try to go into it with that attitude.[/quote]
