[quote=Anonymous]Choose the house and neighborhood and ES. There are so many options for MS, and who knows what will happen by then with boundaries and your own kid! I don’t mean to freak you out but … your child might be shown to have learning disabilities that mean a move to private for you. Or your job might change. Or your one kid might get bullied or be the bully. Or maybe there will be a new principal at the school you choose who is great! or terrible! And you have to change plans.

I am saying this to my past self. I agonized about where the house I bought tracked to high school. I bought when my oldest was six. Since then, my kids have gone to Einstein (which I swear I was so freaked out about!) and Blair and they’ve been FINE!

Once you get into a community and your kids are going to school with a cohort and you become friends with families etc… the worry about HS lessens.

I am sure you’re more mentally stable than I was, OP, I just wanted to give you advice I wish I’d gotten.

TLDR- buy for the house/neighborhood.. either you’ll become fine with whatever school everyone’s going to, or something in your life will change and then you’ll at least be happy in your house/area. [/quote]
