[quote=Anonymous]OP, no it doesn’t matter what school tour child will go to. I don’t understand parents’ obsession in the US with what school their children go to. Both me and my husband are from another country. My school was one of the worst schools in an OK school district, my husband is from a small town where basically all population was low income, including himself. Now we both have our dream jobs in DC area, both of us have colleagues from Ivies and top 50 colleges, and we still don’t understand what’s a big deal - it all comes down to their work ethics, skills, and personalities, regardless of what school they graduated from. The only logic that has served us well in our lives is just do your best in whatever school and work you got, study and work hard and hopefully it pays off. OP, I think your best bet is just a find a house that you think would make your family happy to be in, and remember that the best extracurricular activity is being with a family who’s really present.[/quote]
