[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP: in the DMV area, the kind of school that meets your definition of "down-to-Earth" would be home schooled! Just the fact that real estate tax is high and most of the schools have tuition starting at $25k, yet people are still willing and able to pay for private tuition. [/quote] I hear you. We're considering parochial, because I think it does (depending on the school) fall into this category. But I do wonder if there aren't some schools where even though obviously most of the people are very wealthy, they don't buy their kids the Uggs/Iphones/Mercedes anyway. You know what I mean? I keep holding out hope that this exists. I went to a very expensive top-tier college and, even though the average household income was probably similar to the average household income at most private schools here, there wasn't this atmosphere of wealth the way there is at the schools I've toured here.
