[quote=Anonymous]OP this is how I see things. I went to top private schools from PK-12, including a NE boarding school for high school. It was fabulous. I got a terrific education and have incredible friends. I also attended a prestigious college. But... My private school (Similar to GDS or Sidwell) cost $4000 in 1985. That's equivalent to about $9000 today. I'd pay $9000 for my kid to repeat my experience, sure. I would NOT pay $40,000. Unless you are very very rich that amount of money simply isn't worth the relatively small differences I see so far between our good public and my private experience. This is money that we as a family use to enhance our life in all sorts of ways from which my kids benefit. I am very happy with my kids school and I don't doubt that my children will also wind up with a great education and attend great colleges. [/quote]
