[quote=Anonymous] A DC private as a 10th grader probably won't offer that much aid, even for Catholic. Even teachers can only expect 50% (If they work at the school). You are looking at 15K-25K (maybe 30) for 3 years, and tuition will increase each year. Your kid will also have the impression that private college is a given. Add in beach weeks, uniforms, textbooks and related social expenses. Sports, theatre, AP exams, band...they all have fees. If you can use your college savings for tuition, replenish the college fund while they are in HS (almost impossible) you could get away with it, but if your child is content, you may want to keep it going as you have it.
