[quote=Anonymous]I'm in a neighborhood with a great elementary and less great middle and high schools. Increasingly I have noticed among my friends here a certain annoyance and frustration with people who move or go private at middle school. The argument seems to be that if all the affluent families just stayed then the school would be great, and those who leave are bringing down everyone's property values by admitting the schools aren't awesome. Thing is, it has always been our plan to go private for middle and high school, even before we lived here and even before I met these people. I like them but if experience is any guide then our family may be viewed as throwing out money away or fearing diversity or worse. These are real friends so maybe they will be understanding (one can hope). Has it happened to you?[/quote]
