[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] We have 3 kids and private isn't an option. [/quote] It depends on a number of factors, but for us, it makes financial sense to be in PG County and send our 3 kids to private school. Our house here would cost over a million dollars in other close-in suburbs (we paid $200k, although it would probably fetch more than $400k now), and we wanted a large home with character and a short commute to our jobs in D.C. Our three children's tuition at St. Jerome Academy in Hyattsville is less than $9500 combined. And this is a school with a national reputation, where our kids are getting a great education and achieving phenomenal test scores. And the school is truly diverse, white/black/Hispanic/Asian all well represented. We could possibly reduce our expenses somewhat if we moved to an exurb, into a tiny house, and sent our kids to public school, but given the lifestyle we want to enjoy, PG County is easily the most affordable choice.[/quote] Where will they attend HS. St Jerome ends at 8th grade. [/quote]
