[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Find a classical school. Often much less expensive but still a very rigorous education. [/quote] This is an excellent suggestion. The close in suburbs in VA and MD have many schools like this with tuition that is a reasonable expense for a family with OP’s income. Dual income families with that income are not sought by inside the beltway privates. The unspoken expectation is that every family will have a single income earner making base 500k with a SAHM who can serve on a part time free basis with school operations. Many of them will state this on the tour. I recall one bringing this up when I toured it. We chose not to apply for this reason not because we couldn’t afford it financially but because we are dual income.[/quote]
