[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live in Bowie and love our home and community...but would never go to the public schools...private is what makes sense. [b] You kind of have to decide your trade off...larger home for better price but have to pay for private school or smaller more expensive home in a good public school district.[/b] I can say, however, Crofton is a different and better school district than Bowie.[/quote] This is part of our dilemma currently. Even if we buy into a neighborhood with the greatest public schools...I am not sure if I like the increasing class sizes, less diversity which is partially behind those schools high ranking, having no clue what the school may be like by the time my toddler gets to middle school/high school due to redistricting amongst other things, the teach to the test focus or focus on the lowest achievers while others languish, the prospect of our jobs moving to a less convenient commute to the home we bought...etc. In some ways I feel I should just stay in PG, upgrade to a nice waterfront home for the cost of a lesser home in a better district and pay for private school.[/quote]
