[quote=Anonymous]OP - you have way too much time on your hands clearly to keep dragging this up over and over.

You have choices - you just don't want to make them and its ok. You could move, you could rent out your house etc,

But really I don't see the point in agonizing over uprooting your life for some supposed educational superstar that you just don't have. You seem to think your child is some rarity and is being put at some grave educational disadvantage. Scoring 99% on some test is nothing in this area - the public and private schools are full of these kids.  Pick the best public school you can for the moment or the closest private school you can afford and let it go. If your child doesn't attend Sidwell, they will still be able to go to college - a good one even.

And believe me, private school is not the holy grail you believe it to be. Many of the kids are average or slightly above, some of the teachers are mediocre and get kept year to year, and the social scene for you and your kid is pretty taxing and costly.[/quote]
