[quote=Anonymous]We had two kids in private (not in DC), but took one out after middle school. It was not worth the $$ for that child, but definitely worth the $$ for our other child who stayed in private. In our case, I think the private school clearly offers the better education. The private school is not required to teach to the test or offer mindless AP classes full of rote memorization that our child in public school takes. We're in a fine school district, so the difference is not worth the extra $$ for one of our children, who is thriving in our public school. Our DC in private is also thriving. They are completely different children with different interests and needs. It's been a huge financial sacrifice for us, BTW, especially when we had two kids in private. Would I do it again? Yes, I would. [/quote]
