[quote=Anonymous]Of the group of people moving to privates but staying in MoCo, I think there can only be a very statistically insignificant upswing as the seats available at privates have been relatively constant over the last three years.  Yes, there have been people moving out of MCPS to other modes of education:  home school, virtual high school, leaving to a *cheaper* location due to telework.  I don't think any of that means the shift out of MCPS is lead by the wealthy.  The truly wealthy have generally been moving out of MoCo (not necessarily MCPS) since the O'Malley administration not due to MCPS but for wealth preservation, estate planning, and business friendly environments.  That is not the same thing as the wealthy leaving MCPS.  Certainly there will be anecdotal evidence in your circles of people moving to privates, but that is most likely due to outliers (either extremely bright and needing/can afford Big 3 DC privates or learning/accountability challenges that only some specialized schools can provide).[/quote]
