[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is anybody mature enough to return to OP's original question? Unless a family is loaded, 35-45K/year privates aren't worth it as compared to Walls. But reputable 20-25K a year DCMD/VA high schools like Gonzaga, St. John's, DeMatha, Bishop O'Connell and Bishop Ireton might be for those without philosophical or religious objections to parochial schools. They tend to offer better facilities, smaller classes, more serious sports and better humanities instruction. [/quote] Some truth, especially with sports. But once you see all the additional fees you at $30K+. DC was admitted to one of the schools mentioned. On shadow day a lot of the kids seemed to have used the private as a backup to Walls. I just wouldn't want to pay for tuition and additional tutors(if necessary). That just doesn't seem like money well spent. [/quote] But what is the alternative?[/quote]
