[quote=Anonymous]My husband and most of his family went to boarding school. I understand the tradition of boarding school. However, there are so many good private schools in DC that I feel it's not necessary. If you live in a small town with only one school, then you don't have a choice. Take a look at St. Alban's and Episcopal High School. I have a young son, so I totally understand how you are feeling. I'm cherishing each year, and I don't want to lose 4 years of being with him. It's also good to be there to guide your child during that time. However, if my child wanted to go to boarding school, then I could not deprive him of that opportunity. It's a really tough call. My husband went to boarding school in 10th grade -- maybe there is a compromise?[/quote]
