[quote=Anonymous]Around here it's tough because if you put your kid in a really good pyramid, they face incredible competition when it comes to college applications. So I'm not sure there is a right answer. In terms of resale value, generally if you are buying in a lower pyramid and selling in a lower pyramid, yes, you'll get less for your house on resale but you'll also pay less. The trick there is to not buy in a pyramid that is going to get worse (or perceived) as worse during the time you hold it. (Think about the folks who were fighting being rezoned from Abingdon to Drew because they knew Drew was perceived as a lesser school.)[/quote]
