No, my guess is he's military and plays an instrument.  She said about him (to paraphrase):  "he has been training for this career since he was a child, he serves our country and he can't transfer to a higher paying job". 
I bet he does something like plays trumpet for a military band.  (What else could he be training for since childhood?)

He is probably enlisted (limited potential to advance in in pay)
She stays at home and homeschools. 
They live somewhere in PG or way out in VA. 
Not sure why their kid needs to go to a high-end high school.

The child is elementary school-aged. Do military band members not move around the same way other enlisted do? I don't know any military families who expect to be in the same place for more than a few years but then again, I don't know any musicians.

OP, I know at least the Catholic high schools in VA have merit scholarships along with financial aid, and the tuition is much more reasonable so 25% or 50% off might put it in your reach vs. one of the independent high schools where 25% of a big number is still a big number.
