[quote=Anonymous]I want to offer a different perspective. We sent our kids to private for many years in the belief it was a better education for them. I think it was better -socially and academically - than the local public where we lived. Having said that, we got in over our head financially with the tuition we were paying -- it just kept going up, and we had three kids and three tuitions to pay. For next year we had no choice but to take them out of private school -- so much of our savings were depleted. We are moving to a top public school cluster in Montgomery County, MD and hope for the best -- we hear good things about the schools here. If I had it all to do over again I don't know if I'd choose private school -- at least not for some many years and with three kids. Sacrificing for education is something we value, but only to a point. Having no emergency fund, no ability to take nice trips, and constant worry about finances hasn't been great for us. [/quote]
