[quote=Anonymous]Once you switch to private school everything else feels like a compromise. Our kids are in a top notch DC private with 12 kids and 2 experienced teachers per class. We just moved to Montgomery county with the thought of maybe using the publics, only to learn they'd be in a class of 24 with one teacher. It's much better than DCPS but no comparison to private. If you choose to go to a top private then it's hard to go back to any public. My advice is to apply to privates and request aid, I've heard of friends making up to $300k getting aid if they had more than one kid and other financial obligations. It can't hurt to ask, you may get a significant discount. Do you have pensions? If so I wouldn't be so worried about your level of retirement savings.[/quote]
