[quote=Anonymous]Step back and assess your goal here...  It sounds like your goal is to provide the absolute best education, growth experiences, etc. that you are able to as parents, and that you're willing to stretch yourself financially to do so.  You're looking to make a longer term plan that gets you there. That's commendable. Really. I'm sure you're an amazing parent.

I personally believe there are multiple avenues here for you to reach your goals.  Absolutely research your current base schools and alternatives and make sure they have good quals.  Langley (or insert name of dream school here) doesn't necessarily have a magic that other schools don't, just a concentration of highly motivated (dare I say aggressive?) and well funded parents and kids. You'll find those same peers all over, just maybe not in the same concentration. Other options for the budget you're willing to allocate could go to tutors, coaches, incredible summer programs, travel, 529's for college, etc., etc., to support your kiddos in their passions and talents, however they evolve.  Locking all of your resources into your mortgage may not provide you the flexibility to tailor that experience in the way that will best benefit their specific needs/ desires.[/quote]
